36 So she said to him, “My father, you have [a]given your word to the Lord; (A)do to me just as [b]you have said, since the Lord has brought you vengeance on your enemies, the sons of Ammon.” 37 And she said to her father, “Let this thing be done for me; allow me two months, so that I may [c]go to the mountains and weep because of (B)my virginity, I and my friends.” 38 Then he said, “Go.” So he let her go for two months; and she left with her friends, and wept on the mountains because of her virginity.

New International Version
36 “My father,” she replied, “you have given your word to the Lord. Do to me just as you promised,(A) now that the Lord has avenged you(B) of your enemies,(C) the Ammonites. 37 But grant me this one request,” she said. “Give me two months to roam the hills and weep with my friends, because I will never marry.”
38 “You may go,” he said. And he let her go for two months. She and her friends went into the hills and wept because she would never marry.
