SCRIPTURE

"And Benjamin returned at that time; and they gave them the women whom they had saved alive of the women of Jabesh-gilead: and yet so they sufficed them not." — Judges 21:14 (ASV)

Came again —i.e., returned to their desolate towns.

Yet so they sufficed them not. —There would still be 200 Benjamites left without wives.
