Judges 21:3 in Context — Judges 21
1 E os homens de Israel haviam jurado em Mispá, dizendo: Nenhum de nós dará sua filha aos de Benjamim por mulher.
2 E veio o povo à casa de Deus, e estiveram ali até à tarde diante de Deus; e levantando sua voz fizeram grande pranto, e disseram:
3 Ó SENHOR Deus de Israel, por que sucedeu isto em Israel, que falte hoje de Israel uma tribo?
4 E ao dia seguinte o povo se levantou de manhã, e edificaram ali altar, e ofereceram holocaustos e pacíficos.
5 E disseram os filhos de Israel: Quem de todas as tribos de Israel não subiu à reunião próximo do SENHOR? Porque se havia feito grande juramento contra o que não subisse ao SENHOR em Mispá, dizendo: Sofrerá morte.
