1 Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was gathered together as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, and from the land of Gilead, unto the Lord in Mizpa. 2 And the corners of all the people, and all the tribes of Israel, assembled in the Church of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen that drew sword. 3 And the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up unto Mizpa. Then the children of Israel said: Howe is this wickedness committed? 4 And the man the Levite, the woman's husband that was slain, answered and said: I came unto Gibea which is in Benjamin, with my concubine to lodge. 5 And the men of Gibea arose against me, and beset the house round about upon me by night, thinking to have slain me. And have forced my concubine that she is dead. 6 Then I took my concubine, and cut her in pieces, and sent her thorough out all the country of the inheritance of Israel. For they have committed abomination and villainy in Israel. 7 Behold all ye children of Israel, give your advise and Counsel herein.
