11 At that time they sacrificed to the Lord 700 cattle and 7,000 sheep from all the plunder they had brought.

12 Then they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their ancestors with all their mind and all their heart.

13 Whoever would not seek the Lord God of Israel would be put to death, young or old, man or woman.
