07:021:015 And the people repented them for Benjamin, because that the
LORD had made a breach in the tribes of Israel.
07:021:016 Then the elders of the congregation said, How shall we do for
wives for them that remain, seeing the women are destroyed out
of Benjamin?
07:021:017 And they said, There must be an inheritance for them that be
escaped of Benjamin, that a tribe be not destroyed out of
Israel.
07:021:018 Howbeit we may not give them wives of our daughters: for the
children of Israel have sworn, saying, Cursed be he that
giveth a wife to Benjamin.
07:021:019 Then they said, Behold, there is a feast of the LORD in Shiloh yearly in a place which is on the north side of Bethel, on the east side of the highway that goeth up from Bethel to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah.
07:021:020 Therefore they commanded the children of Benjamin, saying, Go and lie in wait in the vineyards;
07:021:021 And see, and, behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in dances, then come ye out of the vineyards, and catch you every man his wife of the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin.
07:021:022 And it shall be, when their fathers or their brethren come unto us to complain, that we will say unto them, Be favourable unto them for our sakes: because we reserved not to each man his wife in the war: for ye did not give unto them at this time, that ye should be guilty.
07:021:023 And the children of Benjamin did so, and took them wives, according to their number, of them that danced, whom they caught: and they went and returned unto their inheritance, and repaired the cities, and dwelt in them.
07:021:024 And the children of Israel departed thence at that time, every man to his tribe and to his family, and they went out from thence every man to his inheritance.
