2. So the people came to Bĕyth Ěl, and sat there until evening before Elohim, and lifted up their voices and wept bitterly,
3. and said, “O יהוה Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, why has this come about in Yisra’ĕl, that today there should be one tribe missing in Yisra’ĕl?”
4. And it came to be on the morrow, that the people rose early and built an altar there, and brought burnt offerings and peace offerings.
