Judges 21:23-25

Expanded Bible

²³ So that is what the ·Benjaminites [^Lsons/descendants of Benjamin] did. While the young women were dancing, each man caught one of them [^Laccording to their number], ·took her away, and married her [^Land carried her off]. Then they went back to ·the land God had given them [their inheritance] and rebuilt their cities and lived there.

²⁴ Then the ·Israelites [^Lsons/^Tchildren of Israel] went home to their own tribes and ·family groups [clans], to their own ·land that God had given them [inheritance].

²⁵ In those days Israel did not have a king. All the people did whatever seemed right in their own eyes [17:6; 18:1; 19:1].
