And they said, There must be an inheritance for those of Benjamin who have escaped, so that a tribe may not be destroyed out of Israel.
But the land shall be divided by lot. According to the names of the tribes of their fathers they shall inherit.
So the inheritance of the sons of Israel shall not be moved from tribe to tribe. For every one of the sons of Israel shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
And the elders of the congregation said, What shall we do for wives for those who are left, since the women are destroyed out of Benjamin?
However, we may not give them wives of our daughters. For the sons of Israel have sworn, saying, Cursed is he who gives a wife to Benjamin.
