2 Y los principales de todo el pueblo, de todas las tribus de Israel, se hallaron presentes en la reunión del pueblo de Dios, cuatrocientos mil hombres de á pie que sacaban espada.

3 Y los hijos de Benjamín oyeron que los hijos de Israel habían subido á Mizpa. Y dijeron los hijos de Israel: Decid cómo fué esta maldad.

4 Entonces el varón Levita, marido de la mujer muerta, respondió y dijo: Yo llegué á Gabaa de Benjamín con mi concubina, para tener allí la noche.

5 Y levantándose contra mí los de Gabaa, cercaron sobre mí la casa de noche, con idea de matarme, y oprimieron mi concubina de tal manera, que ella fué muerta.

6 Entonces tomando yo mi concubina, cortéla en piezas, y enviélas por todo el término de la posesión de Israel: por cuanto han hecho maldad y crimen en Israel.
