14 And Benjamin returned at that time, and they gave them wives, whom they had made on live of the women of Jabes Gilead, which yet were not sufficient for them. 15 And the people had compassion on Benjamin, because the Lord had made a gap in the tribes of Israel. 16 And then the Elders of the congregation said: what shall we do for wives for the rest? For the women of Benjamin are destroyed. 17 And they said: There must be an inheritance for them that be escaped of Benjamin, that a tribe be not destroyed out of Israel. 18 For we cannot give them of our daughters to wives. For the children of Israel had sworn saying: Cursed be he that giveth a wife to Benjamin. 19 Then they said: Behold, there is a feast of a Lord yearly in Shiloh, in the place which is on the North side of the house of God, and on the East side of the way that goeth from the house of God, unto Shechem, and is South from Lebanon. 20 And they commanded the children of Benjamin, saying: Go and lye in wait in the vineyards. 21 And take heed: For behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in a row, then come ye out of the vineyards, and catch unto you every man his wife, of the daughters of Shiloh, and get you into the land of Benjamin. 22 And if their fathers or brethren come unto us to complain, we will say unto them: Have pity on us for them, because we reserved not to each man his wife in time of war. And because ye have not given unto them, so that ye have at this time offended. 23 And the children of Benjamin did even so, and took them wives of the dancers, according to their number, whom they caught, ⟨p. 282⟩and went their ways and returned every man to his inheritance. And repairing their cities they dwelt in them. 24 And the children of Israel departed thence at that time, every man to his tribe, and to his family. And went out from thence every man to his inheritance. 25 In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which seemed right in his own eyes.
