12 And they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young virgins who had not known a man by [a]sleeping with him; and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
13 Then the whole congregation sent word and spoke to the sons of Benjamin who were (A)at the rock of Rimmon, and (B)proclaimed peace to them. 14 And the tribe of Benjamin returned at that time, and they gave them the women whom they had allowed to live from the women of Jabesh-gilead; but they [b]were not enough for them.
