And the Levite, the husband of the woman that was slain, answered and said, I came into Gib´e-ah that belongeth to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to lodge.
(Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up to Mizpeh.) Then said the children of Israel, Tell us, how was this wickedness?
And the men of Gib´e-ah rose against me, and beset the house round about upon me by night, and thought to have slain me: and my concubine have they forced, that she is dead.
