Lexham English Bible
11 This is the thing you will do: you will destroy[a] every man and every woman who had sex with a man.”[b] 12 And they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young virgins[c] who had not had sex with a man,[d] and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
13 Then the congregation sent and spoke all this to the descendants[e] of Benjamin who were at the rock of Rimmon, and they assured them they would not be hurt.[f]
