KJV JUD20 with Strong's Hebrew/Greek

20:1 Then all the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] went out [H3318] , and the congregation [H5712] was gathered together [H6950] as one [H259] man [H376] , from Dan [H1835] even to Beersheba [H884] , with the land [H776] of Gilead [H1568] , unto the LORD [H3068] in Mizpeh [H4709] .

20:2 And the chief [H6438] of all the people [H5971] , [even] of all the tribes [H7626] of Israel [H3478] , presented [H3320] themselves in the assembly [H6951] of the people [H5971] of God [H430] , four [H702] hundred [H3967] thousand [H505] footmen [H376] [H7273] that drew [H8025] sword [H2719] .

20:3 (Now the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] heard [H8085] that the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] were gone up [H5927] to Mizpeh [H4709] .) Then said [H559] the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] , Tell [H1696] [us], how was [H1961] this wickedness [H7451] ?

20:4 And the Levite [H3881] [H376] , the husband [H376] of the woman [H802] that was slain [H7523] , answered [H6030] and said [H559] , I came [H935] into Gibeah [H1390] that [belongeth] to Benjamin [H1144] , I and my concubine [H6370] , to lodge [H3885] .(the Levite: Heb. the man the Levite)

20:5 And the men [H1167] of Gibeah [H1390] rose [H6965] against me, and beset [H5437] the house [H1004] round about [H5437] upon me by night [H3915] , [and] thought [H1819] to have slain [H2026] me: and my concubine [H6370] have they forced [H6031] , that she is dead [H4191] .(forced: Heb. humbled)

20:6 And I took [H270] my concubine [H6370] , and cut her in pieces [H5408] , and sent [H7971] her throughout all the country [H7704] of the inheritance [H5159] of Israel [H3478] : for they have committed [H6213] lewdness [H2154] and folly [H5039] in Israel [H3478] .

20:7 Behold, ye [are] all children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] ; give [H3051] here [H1988] your advice [H1697] and counsel [H6098] .

20:8 And all the people [H5971] arose [H6965] as one [H259] man [H376] , saying [H559] , We will not any [H376] [of us] go [H3212] to his tent [H168] , neither will we any [H376] [of us] turn [H5493] into his house [H1004] .

20:9 But now this [shall be] the thing [H1697] which we will do [H6213] to Gibeah [H1390] ; [we will go up] by lot [H1486] against it;

20:10 And we will take [H3947] ten [H6235] men [H582] of an hundred [H3967] throughout all the tribes [H7626] of Israel [H3478] , and an hundred [H3967] of a thousand [H505] , and a thousand [H505] out of ten thousand [H7233] , to fetch [H3947] victual [H6720] for the people [H5971] , that they may do [H6213] , when they come [H935] to Gibeah [H1387] of Benjamin [H1144] , according to all the folly [H5039] that they have wrought [H6213] in Israel [H3478] .

20:11 So all the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] were gathered [H622] against the city [H5892] , knit together [H2270] as one [H259] man [H376] .(knit: Heb. fellows)

20:12 And the tribes [H7626] of Israel [H3478] sent [H7971] men [H582] through all the tribe [H7626] of Benjamin [H1144] , saying [H559] , What wickedness [H7451] [is] this that is done [H1961] among you?

20:13 Now therefore deliver [H5414] [us] the men [H582] , the children [H1121] of Belial [H1100] , which [are] in Gibeah [H1390] , that we may put them to death [H4191] , and put away [H1197] evil [H7451] from Israel [H3478] . But the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] would [H14] not hearken [H8085] to the voice [H6963] of their brethren [H251] the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] :

20:14 But the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] gathered themselves together [H622] out of the cities [H5892] unto Gibeah [H1390] , to go out [H3318] to battle [H4421] against the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] .

20:15 And the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] were numbered [H6485] at that time [H3117] out of the cities [H5892] twenty [H6242] and six [H8337] thousand [H505] men [H376] that drew [H8025] sword [H2719] , beside the inhabitants [H3427] of Gibeah [H1390] , which were numbered [H6485] seven [H7651] hundred [H3967] chosen [H977] men [H376] .

20:16 Among all this people [H5971] [there were] seven [H7651] hundred [H3967] chosen [H977] men [H376] lefthanded [H334] [H3027] [H3225] ; every one could sling [H7049] stones [H68] at an hair [H8185] [breadth], and not miss [H2398] .

20:17 And the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] , beside Benjamin [H1144] , were numbered [H6485] four [H702] hundred [H3967] thousand [H505] men [H376] that drew [H8025] sword [H2719] : all these [were] men [H376] of war [H4421] .

20:18 And the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] arose [H6965] , and went up [H5927] to the house [H1004] of God [H430] [H1008] , and asked [H7592] counsel of God [H430] , and said [H559] , Which [H4310] of us shall go up [H5927] first [H8462] to the battle [H4421] against the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] ? And the LORD [H3068] said [H559] , Judah [H3063] [shall go up] first [H8462] .

20:19 And the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] rose up [H6965] in the morning [H1242] , and encamped [H2583] against Gibeah [H1390] .

20:20 And the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] went out [H3318] to battle [H4421] against Benjamin [H1144] ; and the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] put themselves in array [H6186] to fight [H4421] against them at Gibeah [H1390] .

20:21 And the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] came forth [H3318] out of Gibeah [H1390] , and destroyed down [H7843] to the ground [H776] of the Israelites [H3478] that day [H3117] twenty [H6242] and two [H8147] thousand [H505] men [H376] .

20:22 And the people [H5971] the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] encouraged [H2388] themselves, and set their battle [H4421] again [H3254] in array [H6186] in the place [H4725] where they put themselves in array [H6186] the first [H7223] day [H3117] .

20:23 (And the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] went up [H5927] and wept [H1058] before [H6440] the LORD [H3068] until even [H6153] , and asked [H7592] counsel of the LORD [H3068] , saying [H559] , Shall I go up [H5066] again [H3254] to battle [H4421] against the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] my brother [H251] ? And the LORD [H3068] said [H559] , Go up [H5927] against him.)

20:24 And the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] came near [H7126] against the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] the second [H8145] day [H3117] .

20:25 And Benjamin [H1144] went forth [H3318] against [H7125] them out of Gibeah [H1390] the second [H8145] day [H3117] , and destroyed down [H7843] to the ground [H776] of the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] again eighteen [H8083] [H6240] thousand [H505] men [H376] ; all these drew [H8025] the sword [H2719] .

20:26 Then all the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] , and all the people [H5971] , went up [H5927] , and came [H935] unto the house [H1004] of God [H430] [H1008] , and wept [H1058] , and sat [H3427] there before [H6440] the LORD [H3068] , and fasted [H6684] that day [H3117] until even [H6153] , and offered [H5927] burnt offerings [H5930] and peace offerings [H8002] before [H6440] the LORD [H3068] .

20:27 And the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] enquired [H7592] of the LORD [H3068] , (for the ark [H727] of the covenant [H1285] of God [H430] [was] there in those days [H3117] ,

20:28 And Phinehas [H6372] , the son [H1121] of Eleazar [H499] , the son [H1121] of Aaron [H175] , stood [H5975] before [H6440] it in those days [H3117] ,) saying [H559] , Shall I yet again [H3254] go out [H3318] to battle [H4421] against the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] my brother [H251] , or shall I cease [H2308] ? And the LORD [H3068] said [H559] , Go up [H5927] ; for to morrow [H4279] I will deliver [H5414] them into thine hand [H3027] .

20:29 And Israel [H3478] set [H7760] liers in wait [H693] round about [H5439] Gibeah [H1390] .

20:30 And the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] went up [H5927] against the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] on the third [H7992] day [H3117] , and put themselves in array [H6186] against Gibeah [H1390] , as at other times [H6471] .

20:31 And the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] went out [H3318] against [H7125] the people [H5971] , [and] were drawn away [H5423] from the city [H5892] ; and they began [H2490] to smite [H5221] of the people [H5971] , [and] kill [H2491] , as at other times [H6471] , in the highways [H4546] , of which one [H259] goeth up [H5927] to the house [H1004] of God [H430] [H1008] , and the other [H259] to Gibeah [H1390] in the field [H7704] , about thirty [H7970] men [H376] of Israel [H3478] .(to smite: Heb. to smite of the people wounded as at, etc)(the house: or, Bethel)

20:32 And the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] said [H559] , They [are] smitten down [H5062] before [H6440] us, as at the first [H7223] . But the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] said [H559] , Let us flee [H5127] , and draw [H5423] them from the city [H5892] unto the highways [H4546] .

20:33 And all the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] rose up [H6965] out of their place [H4725] , and put themselves in array [H6186] at Baaltamar [H1193] : and the liers in wait [H693] of Israel [H3478] came forth [H1518] out of their places [H4725] , [even] out of the meadows [H4629] of Gibeah [H1387] .

20:34 And there came [H935] against [H5048] Gibeah [H1390] ten [H6235] thousand [H505] chosen [H977] men [H376] out of all Israel [H3478] , and the battle [H4421] was sore [H3513] : but they knew [H3045] not that evil [H7451] [was] near [H5060] them.

20:35 And the LORD [H3068] smote [H5062] Benjamin [H1144] before [H6440] Israel [H3478] : and the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] destroyed [H7843] of the Benjamites [H1145] that day [H3117] twenty [H6242] and five [H2568] thousand [H505] and an hundred [H3967] men [H376] : all these drew [H8025] the sword [H2719] .

20:36 So the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] saw [H7200] that they were smitten [H5062] : for the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] gave [H5414] place [H4725] to the Benjamites [H1145] , because they trusted [H982] unto the liers in wait [H693] which they had set [H7760] beside Gibeah [H1390] .

20:37 And the liers in wait [H693] hasted [H2363] , and rushed [H6584] upon Gibeah [H1390] ; and the liers in wait [H693] drew [themselves] along [H4900] , and smote [H5221] all the city [H5892] with the edge [H6310] of the sword [H2719] .(drew: or, made a long sound with the trumpet)

20:38 Now there was an appointed sign [H4150] between the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] and [H5973] the liers in wait [H693] , that they should make a great [H7235] flame [H4864] with smoke [H6227] rise up [H5927] out of the city [H5892] .(sign: or, time)(and: Heb. with)(flame: Heb. elevation)

20:39 And when the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] retired [H2015] in the battle [H4421] , Benjamin [H1144] began [H2490] to smite [H5221] [and] kill [H2491] of the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] about thirty [H7970] persons [H376] : for they said [H559] , Surely [H5062] they are smitten down [H5062] before [H6440] us, as [in] the first [H7223] battle [H4421] .(to smite: Heb. to smite the wounded)

20:40 But when the flame [H4864] began [H2490] to arise up [H5927] out of the city [H5892] with a pillar [H5982] of smoke [H6227] , the Benjamites [H1145] looked [H6437] behind [H310] them, and, behold, the flame [H3632] of the city [H5892] ascended up [H5927] to heaven [H8064] .(the flame of: Heb. the whole consumption of)

20:41 And when the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] turned again [H2015] , the men [H376] of Benjamin [H1144] were amazed [H926] : for they saw [H7200] that evil [H7451] was come [H5060] upon them.(was come: Heb. touched them)

20:42 Therefore they turned [H6437] [their backs] before [H6440] the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] unto the way [H1870] of the wilderness [H4057] ; but the battle [H4421] overtook [H1692] them; and them which [came] out of the cities [H5892] they destroyed [H7843] in the midst [H8432] of them.

20:43 [Thus] they inclosed [H3803] the Benjamites [H1145] round about [H3803] , [and] chased [H7291] them, [and] trode them down [H1869] with ease [H4496] over against [H5227] Gibeah [H1390] toward the sunrising [H4217] [H8121] .(with ease: or, from Menuchah, etc)(over: Heb. unto over against)

20:44 And there fell [H5307] of Benjamin [H1144] eighteen [H8083] [H6240] thousand [H505] men [H376] ; all these [were] men [H582] of valour [H2428] .

20:45 And they turned [H6437] and fled [H5127] toward the wilderness [H4057] unto the rock [H5553] of Rimmon [H7417] : and they gleaned [H5953] of them in the highways [H4546] five [H2568] thousand [H505] men [H376] ; and pursued [H1692] hard after [H310] them unto Gidom [H1440] , and slew [H5221] two thousand [H505] men [H376] of them.

20:46 So that all which fell [H5307] that day [H3117] of Benjamin [H1144] were twenty [H6242] and five [H2568] thousand [H505] men [H376] that drew [H8025] the sword [H2719] ; all these [were] men [H582] of valour [H2428] .

20:47 But six [H8337] hundred [H3967] men [H376] turned [H6437] and fled [H5127] to the wilderness [H4057] unto the rock [H5553] Rimmon [H7417] , and abode [H3427] in the rock [H5553] Rimmon [H7417] four [H702] months [H2320] .

20:48 And the men [H376] of Israel [H3478] turned again [H7725] upon the children [H1121] of Benjamin [H1144] , and smote [H5221] them with the edge [H6310] of the sword [H2719] , as well the men [H4974] of [every] city [H5892] , as [H5704] the beast [H929] , and all that came to hand [H4672] : also they set [H7971] on fire [H784] all the cities [H5892] that they came to [H4672] .(came to hand: Heb. was found)(they came: Heb. were found)
