8 E disseram: Há alguém das tribos de Israel que não tenha subido ao SENHOR em Mispá? E acharam que ninguém de Jabes-Gileade havia vindo ao acampamento à reunião:

9 Porque o povo foi contado, e não havia ali homem dos moradores de Jabes-Gileade.

10 Então a congregação enviou ali doze mil homens dos mais valentes, e mandaram-lhes, dizendo: Ide e ponde à espada aos moradores de Jabes-Gileade, e as mulheres e meninos.

11 Mas fareis desta maneira: matareis a todo homem e a toda mulher que tiver se deitado com homem.

12 E acharam dos moradores de Jabes-Gileade quatrocentas virgens que não tinham se deitado com homem, e trouxeram-nas ao acampamento em Siló, que está na terra de Canaã.
