Among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead they found four hundred young virgins who had never slept with a man, and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh, in the land of Canaan.
In context
10So the community sent twelve thousand of their fighting men there, with orders: “Go and put the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead to the sword, including the women and children. 11This is what you are to do: devote to destruction every male, and every woman who has slept with a man.” 12Among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead they found four hundred young virgins who had never slept with a man, and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh, in the land of Canaan. 13Then the whole community sent word to the Benjamites at the rock of Rimmon, offering them peace. 14So the Benjamites returned at that time, and the Israelites gave them the women of Jabesh-gilead they had spared, but there were not enough for all of them.
