Amplified Bible
Judges 20:43-48
43They surrounded [the men of] Benjamin, pursued them relentlessly, and overtook them opposite Gibeah toward the east.
44Thus eighteen thousand men of Benjamin fell, all of these brave and able warriors.
45The survivors [of Benjamin] turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon, and Israel caught five thousand of them on the roads and overtook them at Gidom and killed two thousand of them.
46So all of Benjamin who fell that day were twenty-five thousand men who drew the sword, all of them brave and able warriors.
47But six hundred men turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon and stayed at the rock of Rimmon for four months.
48The men of Israel turned back against [the tribe of] the sons of Benjamin and struck them with the edge of the sword, both the entire city [of Gibeah] and the livestock and all that they found. They also set on fire all the [surrounding] towns which they found.
