19 Therefore they said, Behold, there is a feast of the Lord every year in Shiloh, in a place, which is on the [a]North side of Bethel, and on the East side of the way that goeth up from Bethel to Shechem, and on the South of Lebonah.
20 Therefore they commanded the children of Benjamin, saying, Go, and lie in wait in the vineyards.
21 And when ye see that the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in dances, then come ye out of the vineyards, and catch you every man a wife of the daughters of Shiloh, and go into the land of Benjamin.
