Exegesis
The cohortative/imperfect verbs ū-nəmîṯēm {וּנְמִיתֵם | ū-nəmîṯēm} ‘we will put them to death’ and ū-nəḇaʿārā {וּנְבַעֲרָה | ū-nəḇaʿārā} ‘and we shall purge’ outline the community’s judicial and ritual response.
In context — Judges 20:13
And now, give the men, sons of worthlessness, who are in Gibeah, so that we may put them to death and purge evil from Israel. But the sons of Benjamin were not willing to listen to the voice of their brothers, the sons of Israel.
