Judges 20:7
“Behold, ye are all children of Israel; give here your advice and counsel.”
And the men of Gibeah rose against me, and beset the house round about upon me by night, and thought to have slain me: and my concubine have they forced, that she is dead.
And 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.
Behold, ye are all children of Israel; give here your advice and counsel.

But now this shall be the thing which we will do to Gibeah; we will go up by lot against it;
