Judges 21:22-25 Amplified Bible (AMP)

22. And when their fathers or their brothers come to us to complain, we will say to them, Grant them graciously unto us, because we did not reserve a wife for each of them in battle, neither did you give wives to them, for that would have made you guilty [of breaking your oath].

23. And the Benjamites did so and took wives, according to their number, from the dancers whom they carried off; then they went and returned to their inheritance and repaired the towns and dwelt in them.

24. And the Israelites left there then, every man to his tribe and family, and they went out from there every man to his inheritance.

25. In those days there was no king in Israel; every man did what was right in his own eyes.
