Judges 21:20 in Context — Judges 21
18 Nós porém, não lhes podemos dar mulheres de nossas filhas, porque os filhos de Israel juraram, dizendo: Maldito o que der mulher a Benjamim.
19 Agora bem, disseram, eis que cada ano há solenidade do SENHOR em Siló, que está ao norte de Betel, e ao lado oriental do caminho que sobe de Betel a Siquém, e ao sul de Lebona.
20 E mandaram aos filhos de Benjamim, dizendo: Ide, e ponde emboscadas nas vinhas:
21 E estai atentos: e quando virdes sair as filhas de Siló a dançar em cirandas, vós saireis das vinhas, e arrebatareis cada um mulher para si das filhas de Siló, e vos ireis à terra de Benjamim:
22 E quando vierem os pais delas ou seus irmãos a nos exigirem, nós lhes diremos: Tende piedade de nós em lugar deles: pois que nós na guerra não tomamos mulheres para todos: que vós não as destes a eles, para que agora sejais culpáveis.
