13. Now therefore deliver us the men, the children of Belial, who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death, and banish evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not hearken to the voice of their brethren, the children of Israel:
14. But the children of Benjamin assembled out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel.
15. And the children of Benjamin were numbered at that time out of the cities twenty and six thousand men that drew sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah, who were numbered seven hundred chosen men.
16. Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men left-handed; every one could sling stones to a hair-breadth, and not miss.
17. And the men of Israel, besides Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men that drew sword: all these were men of war.
