Judges 11:36-38

Evangelical Heritage Version

³⁶ She said to him, “My father, since you have opened your mouth to the Lord, do to me exactly what came out of your mouth, since the Lord has carried out vengeance for you on your enemies, the Ammonites.” ³⁷ She also said to her father, “Do this one thing for me: Give me two months reprieve, so that I may go out into the mountains and weep for my virginity—I and my friends.”

³⁸ Her father said, “Go,” and he sent her away for two months. She and her friends went and wept over her virginity there on the mountains.
