那利未人， 就是被害的妇人的丈夫， 回答说： "我和我的妾到了便雅悯的基比亚， 要在那里住宿。 
基比亚人民起来攻击我， 在夜间包围我住的房子攻击我， 有意杀害我； 他们把我的妾污辱致死。 
我就把我的妾切成块子， 送到以色列的各地业， 因为基比亚人在以色列中行了极羞耻的恶事。 
以色列人哪， 你们都要说出你们的意见， 也要在这里提出你们的对策。" 
于是众人都起来如同一人， 说： "我们当中谁都不回自己的帐棚， 谁都不回自己的家。 
现在我们要这样对待基比亚人： 我们要照着所抽的签上去攻打他们。 
我们要从以色列各支派中， 每百人抽取十人， 每千人抽取百人， 每万人抽取千人， 好为人民运送粮食； 等他们到了便雅悯的基比亚的时候， 就可以照着他们在以色列中所行的一切羞耻的事惩罚他们。" 
于是以色列众人彼此联合， 如同一人， 聚集起来攻击那城。 
以色列各支派打发人到便雅悯的各家去， 说： "你们中间怎么发生了这样的恶事呢？ 
现在你们要把那些人， 基比亚的无赖之徒， 交出来， 我们好处死他们， 从以色列中除掉这恶。"只是便雅悯人却不肯听从他们的兄弟以色列人的话。 
便雅悯人从各城出来聚集， 往基比亚去， 要与以色列人交战。 
那时便雅悯人， 从各城里被数点的， 共有二万六千拿刀的， 另外被数点的， 还有基比亚的居民， 共有七百精兵。 
在这些人中， 还有七百精兵是善用左手的， 个个都能用机弦拋石， 毫发不差。 
除了便雅悯人以外， 以色列人被数点的， 共有四十万拿刀的， 个个都是战士。

那时， 亚伦的孙子、以利亚撒的儿子非尼哈， 侍立在约柜前供职。以色列人求问耶和华， 说： "我们应再出去与我们的兄弟便雅悯人交战呢？还是休战呢？"耶和华说： "你们应上去， 因为明天我必把他们交在你们手中。" 
以色列人在基比亚四周设下伏兵。 
第三天， 以色列人又上去攻打便雅悯人， 在基比亚前面列阵， 像前两次一样。 
便雅悯人也出来迎敌， 他们被引出城外， 在两条大路上， 一条通往伯特利， 一条通往基比亚， 像前两次一样， 动手杀敌， 在田间杀死以色列人约有三十个。 
便雅悯人说： "他们仍像前一次一样， 败在我们面前了。"以色列人却说： "我们逃跑吧， 引他们离开城市出到大路上来。" 
以色列众人都从自己的地方起来， 在巴力．他玛列阵； 以色列的伏兵， 从基比亚西边埋伏的地方冲出来。 
全以色列中的精兵， 有一万人前来攻打基比亚， 战争非常激烈； 便雅悯人还不知道灾祸快要临到他们的身上了。 
耶和华在以色列人面前击败了便雅悯人； 那天以色列人消灭便雅悯人， 共二万五千一百名， 都是拿刀的。 
这样， 便雅悯人就看出自己被击败了。原来以色列人倚靠在基比亚前面设下的伏兵， 就对便雅悯人诈败。 
伏兵急忙冲入基比亚， 用刀击杀了全城的人。 
以色列人与伏兵预先约定， 就是从城里放火， 以烟气上升为号。 
以色列人在战场上撤退的时候， 便雅悯人就动手杀人， 刺死以色列人约三十个， 心里说： "他们真的像头一次战阵一样， 在我们面前被击败了。" 
当烟柱信号从城中上升的时候， 便雅悯人就转身观看， 只见全城烟火冲天。 
那时， 以色列人又转身回来， 便雅悯人就非常惊慌， 因为看见灾祸临到自己身上了。 
他们在以色列人面前转身， 向旷野的路上逃走， 战争却紧随着他们； 那些从各城里出来的人也在他们中间消灭他们。 
以色列人包围了便雅悯人， 追赶他们， 在他们歇息之地， 直到基比亚对面日出之处， 践踏他们。 
便雅悯人中倒毙的共有一万八千人， 全都是勇士。

所以那一天便雅悯人倒毙的， 共有二万五千人， 都是拿刀的， 全部是勇士。 
剩下的六百人转身， 向着旷野逃跑， 到了临门的磐石那里， 就在临门的磐石那里住了四个月。 
以色列人又回到便雅悯人那里， 把全城的人和牲畜， 以及一切遇见的， 都用刀杀尽； 又把他们碰见的一切城市放火烧毁了。
