1 Entonces toda la nación de Israel envió a sus dirigentes y a cuatrocientos cincuenta mil hombres para que se reunieran delante del Señor en Mizpa. Vinieron desde Dan, desde Berseba y de todos los lugares intermedios, y desde el otro lado del Jordán, de la tierra de Galaad.
1 Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was assembled as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, to Yahweh at Mizpah.
2 Not in this translation
2 The chiefs of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen who drew sword.
3 Pronto supieron en Benjamín que las fuerzas israelitas se habían movilizado en Mizpa. Los jefes de Israel entonces llamaron al hombre de la mujer asesinada y le preguntaron qué había ocurrido.
3 (Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel had gone up to Mizpah.) The children of Israel said, “Tell us, how did this wickedness happen?”
4 ―Llegamos una noche a Guibeá, a la tierra de Benjamín —les contó—.
4 The Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered, “I came into Gibeah that belongs to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to spend the night.
5 Esa noche los hombres de Guibeá rodearon la casa con el fin de matarme; y violaron a mi mujer hasta que murió.
5 The men of Gibeah rose against me, and surrounded the house by night. They intended to kill me and they raped my concubine, and she is dead.
6 Yo corté su cuerpo en doce pedazos y los envié por todo Israel, porque esos hombres habían cometido un crimen horrendo.
6 I took my concubine and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel; for they have committed lewdness and folly in Israel.
7 Ahora, hijos de Israel, denme su parecer y su consejo.
7 Behold, you children of Israel, all of you, give here your advice and counsel.”
8 Y como un solo hombre respondieron: ―Ninguno de nosotros regresará a casa
8 All the people arose as one man, saying, “None of us will go to his tent, neither will any of us turn to his house.
9 hasta que no hayamos terminado de castigar al pueblo de Guibeá. La décima parte de las tribus será seleccionada por suertes y estará encargada de abastecernos de alimentos, y el resto de nosotros destruirá a Guibeá por esta horrible acción.
9 But now this is the thing which we will do to Gibeah: we will go up against it by lot;
10 Not in this translation
10 and we will take ten men of one hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and one hundred of one thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand to get food for the people, that they may do, when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly that the men of Gibeah have done in Israel.”
11 Todos los hombres de Israel se juntaron contra la ciudad,
11 So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, knit together as one man.
12 y enviaron mensajeros a la tribu de Benjamín a preguntar: «¿Saben lo que ha ocurrido entre ustedes?
12 The tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, “What wickedness is this that has happened among you?
13 Entreguen a los hombres perversos de Guibeá para que podamos ejecutarlos y purificar a Israel de su pecado». Pero el pueblo de Benjamín no prestó atención.
13 Now therefore deliver up the men, the wicked fellows who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death and put away evil from Israel.” But Benjamin would not listen to the voice of their brothers, the children of Israel.
14 En vez de oír, enviaron veintiséis mil hombres a Guibeá para que se unieran a los setecientos del lugar en la defensa contra el resto de Israel.
14 The children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel.
15 Not in this translation
15 The children of Benjamin were counted on that day out of the cities twenty-six thousand men who drew the sword, in addition to the inhabitants of Gibeah, who were counted seven hundred chosen men.
16 Entre ellos había setecientos hombres zurdos de muy buena puntería, que podían dar con la honda a un cabello sin errar.
16 Among all these soldiers there were seven hundred chosen men who were left-handed. Every one of them could sling a stone at a hair and not miss.
17 Los hombres de Israel, sin los hombres de Benjamín, sumaba cuatrocientos mil hombres.
17 The men of Israel, besides Benjamin, were counted four hundred thousand men who drew sword. All these were men of war.
18 Antes de la batalla, los israelitas fueron a Betel a pedir consejo a Dios. ―¿Qué tribu nos guiará contra el pueblo de Benjamín? —le preguntaron. Y el Señor respondió: ―Judá irá delante.
18 The children of Israel arose, went up to Bethel, and asked counsel of God. They asked, “Who shall go up for us first to battle against the children of Benjamin?” Yahweh said, “Judah first.”
19 Salieron a la mañana siguiente para ir a Guibeá y atacar a los hombres de Benjamín.
19 The children of Israel rose up in the morning and encamped against Gibeah.

21 The children of Benjamin came out of Gibeah, and on that day destroyed twenty-two thousand of the Israelite men down to the ground.
22 Luego los hombres de Israel lloraron delante del Señor hasta la tarde y le preguntaron: ―¿Seguiremos luchando contra nuestro hermano Benjamín? Y el Señor respondió: ―Sí. Los israelitas recuperaron el valor y fueron al día siguiente a pelear en el mismo lugar.
22 The people, the men of Israel, encouraged themselves, and set the battle again in array in the place where they set themselves in array the first day.

26 Then all the children of Israel and all the people went up, and came to Bethel, and wept, and sat there before Yahweh, and fasted that day until evening; then they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before Yahweh.
27 (El cofre de Dios estaba en Betel en aquellos días; Finés, hijo de Eleazar y nieto de Aarón era el sacerdote). Los hombres de Israel preguntaron al Señor: ―¿Saldremos nuevamente y pelearemos contra nuestro hermano Benjamín o nos detendremos? Y el Señor les dijo: ―Vayan, porque mañana haré que derroten a los hombres de Benjamín.
27 The children of Israel asked Yahweh (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,
28 Not in this translation
28 and Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days), saying, “Shall I yet again go out to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease?” Yahweh said, “Go up; for tomorrow I will deliver him into your hand.”

30 y salió nuevamente al tercer día, y se pusieron en la formación acostumbrada.
30 The children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and set themselves in array against Gibeah, as at other times.
31 Cuando los hombres de la tribu de Benjamín salieron a atacarlos, las fuerzas de Israel retrocedieron y Benjamín salió de la ciudad en persecución de Israel. Y de la manera que habían hecho anteriormente, Benjamín comenzó a perseguir a los hombres de Israel a lo largo del camino que corre entre Betel y Guibeá, hasta que treinta de ellos murieron.
31 The children of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to strike and kill of the people as at other times, in the highways, of which one goes up to Bethel and the other to Gibeah, in the field, about thirty men of Israel.
32 Los de Benjamín gritaron: «Los estamos derrotando nuevamente». Pero los israelitas se habían puesto de acuerdo para huir primero a fin de que los hombres de Benjamín los persiguieran y abandonaran la ciudad.
32 The children of Benjamin said, “They are struck down before us, as at the first.” But the children of Israel said, “Let’s flee, and draw them away from the city to the highways.”
33 Cuando los hombres de Israel llegaron a Baal Tamar, se volvieron y atacaron, mientras los diez mil hombres emboscados al oriente de Guibeá salieron de donde estaban
33 All the men of Israel rose up out of their place and set themselves in array at Baal Tamar. Then the ambushers of Israel broke out of their place, even out of Maareh Geba.
34 y avanzaron contra la retaguardia de la gente de Benjamín, que aún no comprendía el desastre que se avecinaba.
34 Ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel came over against Gibeah, and the battle was severe; but they didn’t know that disaster was close to them.
35 El Señor ayudó a Israel a derrotar a Benjamín. Aquel día los israelitas mataron a veinticinco mil cien hombres de Benjamín, dejando apenas un pequeño remanente de sus fuerzas. Los israelitas habían retrocedido delante de los hombres de Benjamín con el fin de ponerles una emboscada y tener más espacio para maniobrar. Cuando los de Benjamín dieron muerte a treinta israelitas, creyeron que iban a hacer una matanza en masa como en los días anteriores. Pero entonces los hombres que estaban escondidos entraron en la ciudad y mataron a todos los que estaban en ella y le prendieron fuego. La gran nube de humo que subía hacia el cielo fue la señal para que Israel diera vuelta y atacara a los de Benjamín,
35 Yahweh struck Benjamin before Israel; and the children of Israel destroyed of Benjamin that day twenty-five thousand one hundred men. All these drew the sword.
36 Not in this translation
36 So the children of Benjamin saw that they were struck, for the men of Israel yielded to Benjamin because they trusted the ambushers whom they had set against Gibeah.
37 Not in this translation
37 The ambushers hurried, and rushed on Gibeah; then the ambushers spread out, and struck all the city with the edge of the sword.

39 Not in this translation

40 quienes al mirar detrás quedaron aterrados al descubrir que la ciudad estaba ardiendo, y que estaban en serio peligro.
40 But when the cloud began to arise up out of the city in a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them; and behold, the whole city went up in smoke to the sky.
41 Not in this translation
41 The men of Israel turned, and the men of Benjamin were dismayed; for they saw that disaster had come on them.
42 Huyeron hacia el desierto, pero los israelitas los destruyeron y los hombres que habían puesto la emboscada vinieron y se unieron en la matanza por la retaguardia.
42 Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel to the way of the wilderness, but the battle followed hard after them; and those who came out of the cities destroyed them in the middle of it.
43 Rodearon a los benjamitas al este de Guibeá y mataron a la mayoría de ellos allí.
