Lexham English Bible
10 And the congregation sent there twelve thousand men from the troops, and they commanded them, saying, “Go, strike the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead with the edge of the sword,[a] and the women and children. 11 This is the thing you will do: you will destroy[b] every man and every woman who had sex with a man.”[c] 12 And they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young virgins[d] who had not had sex with a man,[e] and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
