Learn the Lesson of Gibeah

Israel, you have sinned ever since the days of Gibeah,
    where the evildoers took their stand.
    The war against the evildoers caught up with them at Gibeah, did it not?

    Peoples will be gathered against them
        to bind them for their double guilt.[b]

nations will be gathered against them
    when they are punished for their double iniquities.[c]
