Judges 21:15-17

Contemporary English Version

¹⁵ The Israelites were very sad, because the Lord had almost wiped out one of their tribes. ¹⁶ Then their leaders said:

All the women of the Benjamin tribe were killed. How can we get wives for the men of Benjamin who are left? ¹⁷ If they don't have children, one of the Israelite tribes will die out.
