4 So the Levite, the husband of the murdered woman, answered: “I and my concubine came to Gibeah (hill) in Benjamin (son of the right hand) to spend the night.

5 And during the night, the men of Gibeah (hill) rose up against me and surrounded the house. They intended to kill me, but they abused my concubine, and she died.

6 Then I took my concubine, cut her into pieces, and sent her throughout the land of Israel’s (he wrestles with God) inheritance, because they had committed a lewd and disgraceful act in Israel.

7 Behold, all you⁺ Israelites (God prevails), give your⁺ advice and verdict here and now.”
