“But now this shall be the thing which we will do to Gibeah; we will go up by lot against it;”
King James Version (KJV)
20:7 Ye are - The sons of that holy man, who for one filthy action left an eternal brand upon one of his own sons: a people in covenant with the holy God, whose honour you are obliged to vindicate, and who hath expressly commanded you to punish all such notorious enormities.
20:8 His tent - That is, his habitation, until we have revenged this injury.
20:10 According, &c. - That we may punish them as such a wickedness deserves. In Israel - This is added as an aggravation, that they should do that in Israel, or among God's peculiar people, which was esteemed abominable even among the Heathen.
But now, this shall bee the thing which we will doe to Gibeah, we will goe vp by lot against it:
