Israel Laments the Loss of Benjamin
Judges 21:1-7
1
Now the men of Israel had sworn an oath at Mizpah, saying, “Not one of us will give his daughter in marriage to a Benjamite.”
2
So the people came to Bethel and sat there before God until evening, lifting up their voices and weeping bitterly.
3
“Why, O LORD God of Israel,” they cried out, “has this happened in Israel? Today in Israel one tribe is missing!”
4
The next day the people got up early, built an altar there, and presented burnt offerings and peace offerings.
5
The Israelites asked, “Who among all the tribes of Israel did not come to the assembly before the LORD?” For they had taken a solemn oath that anyone who failed to come up before the LORD at Mizpah would surely be put to death.
6
And the Israelites grieved for their brothers, the Benjamites, and said, “Today a tribe is cut off from Israel.
7
What should we do about wives for the survivors, since we have sworn by the LORD not to give them our daughters in marriage?”
