Judges 11:38-40

Wycliffe Bible

³⁸ To whom he answered, Go thou. And he suffered her in two months (And he allowed her to go away for two months). And when she had gone forth with her fellows, and her play-frères, she bewept her maidenhood in the hills.

³⁹ And when two months were fulfilled, she turned again to her father, and he did to her as he (had) avowed; and she knew no man fleshly, (that is, she died a virgin). From that time a custom came in Israel, and that custom is kept (to this day),

⁴⁰ that after the end of the year the daughters of Israel come together, and bewail the daughter of Jephthah of Gilead (for) four days.
