Judges 21:12-14
International Standard Version
12 They discovered among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead 400 young virgins who hadn’t had sex with a man, and they brought them to the encampment at Shiloh in the territory of Canaan. 13 Then the entire congregation sent for the surviving[a] descendants of Benjamin who were living at the rock of Rimmon and assured them that their intentions toward them were peaceful.[b] 14 So the survivors of the tribe of Benjamin[c] returned at that time, and the Israelis[d] gave them the women whom they had kept alive from the raid on[e] Jabesh-gilead. Even so, there weren’t enough for them.
