Born in Jēkabpils, Bentsian Donde was the son of Boris Donde (born 1908, Krustpils) and Sofia Donde (née Donde, born 1901, Krustpils). Having completed eight years of education via correspondence at Marupe, he began his working life in 1955–56 as a fitter in Motor Transport Column No. 11 in Jēkabpils. He served as a sailor at the Jēkabpils pier in 1957–58, then returned to become a fitter at the Krustpils District Industrial Combine in 1958. From 1958 to 1961, he served in the Soviet Army.

Upon discharge, Donde worked between 1962 and 1979 as a fitter and welder at various factories—Kompressor, VEF, Rīgas Adītājs—as well as at the Riga Wagon Depot and in the Rīgas Gāztīkls (gas network management).

He first married Sofija Donde (née Brailovskaya, born 1934, Riga), with whom he had a daughter, Olga Yakovleva (née Donde) (born 1963, Riga). In a subsequent marriage to Dveira Donde (née Kapelovich, born 1938, Riga), he had a son, Eduard Donde (born 1970, Riga). In 1979, Donde received permission to emigrate to Israel, invited by his brother Meise (Moshe) Donde (born 1935, Krustpils). His daughter Olga emigrated to Israel in 1992.
