Judges 20:27-29

New International Reader's Version

²⁷ Again the Israelites spoke to the Lord. In those days the ark of the covenant of God was there. ²⁸ Phinehas was serving as priest at the ark. He was the son of Eleazar. Eleazar was the son of Aaron. The Israelites asked, “Should we go up again to fight against the men of Benjamin? They are our fellow Israelites.”

The Lord answered, “Go. Tomorrow I will hand them over to you.”

²⁹ Then Israel hid some men and had them wait all around Gibeah.
