7. What shall we do for wives for them that remain, seeing we have sworn by the LORD that we will not give them of our daughters as wives?
8. And they said, What one is there of the tribes of Israel that came not up to Mizpah to the LORD? And, behold, there came none to the camp from Jabeshgilead to the assembly.
9. For the people were numbered, and, behold, there were none of the inhabitants of Jabeshgilead there.
10. And the congregation sent there twelve thousand of the most valiant men, and commanded them, saying, Go and strike the inhabitants of Jabeshgilead with the edge of the sword, with the women and the children.
11. And this is the thing that you shall do, you shall utterly destroy every male, and every woman that has lain with a man.
