Judges 20:36-46

36So the sonsH1121 of BenjaminH1144 sawH7200 that they were 1defeatedH5062. 2When the menH376 of IsraelH3478 gaveH5414 3groundH4725 to BenjaminH1144 becauseH3588 they reliedH982 on the men inH693 ambushH693 whomH834 they had setH7760 againstH413 GibeahH1390,

374the men inH693 ambushH693 hurriedH2363 and rushedH6584 againstH413 GibeahH1390; the men inH693 ambushH693 also deployedH4900 and struckH5221 allH3605 the cityH5892 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.

38Now the agreedH4150 signH4150 between the menH376 of IsraelH3478 and the men inH693 ambushH693 was 5that they would makeH7235 a greatH7235 cloudH4864 of smokeH6227 riseH5927 from the cityH5892.

39Then the menH376 of IsraelH3478 turnedH2015 in the battleH4421, and BenjaminH1144 beganH2490 to strikeH5221 andH5221 killH5221H2490 about thirtyH7970 menH376 of IsraelH3478, 6for they saidH559, “UndoubtedlyH389H5062 they are 7defeatedH5062 beforeH6440 us, as in the firstH7223 battleH4421.”

40But when the cloudH4864 beganH2490 to riseH5927 from the cityH5892 in a columnH5982 of smokeH6227, BenjaminH1144 lookedH6437 8behindH310 them; and beholdH2009, the entireH3632 cityH5892 was goingH5927 upH5927 in smoke to heavenH8064.

41Then the menH376 of IsraelH3478 turnedH2015, and the menH376 of BenjaminH1144 were terrifiedH926; for they sawH7200 that 9disasterH7463 was 10closeH5060 to them.

42Therefore, they turnedH6437 their backs beforeH6440 the menH376 of IsraelH3478 to flee in the 11directionH413H1870 of the wildernessH4057, but the battleH4421 overtookH1692 them whileH834 those whoH834 attacked from the citiesH5892 were annihilatingH7843 them in the midstH8432 of them.

4312They surroundedH3803 BenjaminH1144, pursuedH7291 them without restH4496, and trampledH1869 them downH1869 oppositeH5227 GibeahH1390 towardH4480 the 13eastH4217H8121.

44So eighteenH8083H6240 thousandH505 menH376 of BenjaminH1144 fellH5307; allH3605 of theseH428 were valiantH2428 menH376.

4514The rest turnedH6437 and fledH5127 toward the wildernessH4057 to the rockH5553 of 15RimmonH7417, but they 16caughtH5953 fiveH2568 thousandH505 of them on the roadsH4546 and overtookH1692 them 17at GidomH1440, and 18killedH5221 twoH505 thousandH505 of them.

46So allH3605 those of BenjaminH1144 who fellH5307 that dayH3117 were twenty-fiveH2568H6242 thousandH505 menH376 who drewH8025 the swordH2719; allH3605 of theseH428 were valiantH2428 menH376.
