Judges 21:9 CPDV

⁷  From where shall they receive wives? For we have all sworn in common that we will not give our daughters to them.'

⁸  For this reason, they said, 'Who is there, out of all the tribes of Israel, that did not ascend to the Lord at Mizpah?' And behold, the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead were found not to have been among that army.

⁹  (Likewise, in the time when they had been at Shiloh, not one of them was found to be there.)

¹⁰  And so they sent ten thousand very robust men, and they instructed them, saying, 'Go and strike down the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead with the edge of the sword, including their wives and little ones.'

¹¹  And this shall be what you ought to do: 'Every one of the male gender, as well as all the women who have known men, shall be put to death. But the virgins you shall reserve.'
