So all the sons of Israel came out, from Dan to Beer-sheba, as well as from the land of Gilead, and the congregation assembled as one man, unto Jehovah at Mizpah.

So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, united as one man.

Now the men of Israel had sworn at Mizpah, saying, None of us shall give his daughter to Benjamin as a wife.

And the children of Israel said, Who is there among all the tribes of Israel who did not come up with the assembly to Jehovah? For they had made a great oath concerning anyone who did not come up to Jehovah at Mizpah, saying, He shall die the death.

With Jehovah, to do righteousness and justice is to be chosen over sacrifice.

Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for there is no work nor reasoning nor knowledge nor wisdom in Sheol where you go.
