Judges 21:22-24

New International Version

²² When their fathers or brothers complain to us, we will say to them, ‘Do us the favor of helping them, because we did not get wives for them during the war. You will not be guilty of breaking your oath because you did not give^(A) your daughters to them.’”

²³ So that is what the Benjamites did. While the young women were dancing,^(B) each man caught one and carried her off to be his wife. Then they returned to their inheritance^(C) and rebuilt the towns and settled in them.^(D)

²⁴ At that time the Israelites left that place and went home to their tribes and clans, each to his own inheritance.
