Judges 21:9 in Context — Judges 21

7 Que ferons-nous pour procurer des femmes à ceux qui ont survécu, puisque nous avons juré par l’Éternel de ne pas leur donner de nos filles pour femmes?

8 Ils dirent donc: Y a-t-il quelqu’un d’entre les tribus d’Israël qui ne soit pas monté vers l’Éternel à Mitspa? Et voici, personne de Jabès en Galaad n’était venu au camp, à l’assemblée.

9 On fit le dénombrement du peuple, et il n’y avait là aucun des habitants de Jabès en Galaad.

10 Alors l’assemblée envoya contre eux douze mille soldats, en leur donnant cet ordre: Allez, et frappez du tranchant de l’épée les habitants de Jabès en Galaad, avec les femmes et les enfants.

11 Voici ce que vous ferez: vous dévouerez par interdit tout mâle et toute femme qui a connu la couche d’un homme.
