3 (Now the Benjaminites heard that the people of Israel had gone up to Mizpah.) And the people of Israel said, 'Tell us, how was this wickedness brought to pass?'
4 And the Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered and said, 'I came to Gib'e-ah that belongs to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to spend the night.
5 And the men of Gib'e-ah rose against me, and beset the house round about me by night; they meant to kill me, and they ravished my concubine, and she is dead.
6 And I took my concubine and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel; for they have committed abomination and wantonness in Israel.
7 Behold, you people of Israel, all of you, give your advice and counsel here.'
