יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל Yis.ra.'El “Israel”

And the sons of Benjamin come out to meet the people; they have been drawn away out of the city, and begin to smite `some' of the people -- wounded as time by time, in the highways (of which one is going up to Beth-El, and the other to Gibeah in the field), `are' about thirty men of Israel.

יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ Yis.ra.'El “Israel”

And the men of Israel have turned back unto the sons of Benjamin, and smite them by the mouth of the sword out of the city, -- men unto cattle, unto all that is found; also all the cities which are found they have sent into fire.

יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל Yis.ra.'El “Israel”בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל (יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל) Yis.ra.'El “Israel”מִיִּשְׂרָאֵ֖ל (יִּשְׂרָאֵ֖ל) Yis.ra.'El “Israel”

And the sons of Israel say, `Who `is' he that hath not come up in the assembly out of all the tribes of Israel unto Jehovah?' for the great oath hath been concerning him who hath not come up unto Jehovah to Mizpeh, saying, `He is surely put to death.'
