Wives Provided for the Benjamites
1 Now athe men of Israel had sworn an oath at Mizpah, saying, “None of us shall give his daughter to Benjamin as a wife.”
2 Then the people came ato the house of God, and remained there before God till evening. They lifted up their voices and wept bitterly,
3 and said, “O Lord God of Israel, why has this come to pass in Israel, that today there should be one tribe missing in Israel?”
4 So it was, on the next morning, that the people rose early and abuilt an altar there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings.
