Judges 20:29-35
29And IsraelH3478 setH7760 liers in waitH693 againstH413 GibeahH1390 roundH5439 aboutH5439.
30And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 wentH5927 upH5927 againstH413 the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, and setH5927 themselves in array againstH413 GibeahH1390, as at otherH6471 timesH6471.
31And the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 wentH3318 outH3318 againstH4480 the peopleH5971, and were drawnH5423 awayH4480 from the cityH5892; and they beganH2490 to smiteH5221 and killH5221 of the peopleH5971, as at otherH259 timesH6471, in the highwaysH4546, of whichH834 one goeth upH5927 to Beth-el, and the otherH259 to GibeahH1390, in the fieldH7704, aboutH4480 thirtyH7970 menH376 of IsraelH3478.
32And the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 saidH559, They are smitten downH5062 beforeH6440 usH413, as at the firstH7223. But the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, Let usH413 rise, and drawH5423 them awayH4480 from the cityH5892 unto the highwaysH4546.
33And allH3605 the menH376 of IsraelH3478 roseH6965 upH6965 outH3605 of their placeH4725, and setH6965 themselves in array at Baal-tamarH1193: and the liers in waitH693 of IsraelH3478 brake forthH1518 outH3605 of their placeH4725, even outH3605 of Maareh-geba.
34And there cameH935 over againstH5921 GibeahH1390 tenH6235 thousandH505 chosenH3045 menH376 outH3045 of allH3605 IsraelH3478, and the battleH4421 was sore: but they knewH3045 notH3808 that evilH7451 was closeH5060 uponH5921 them.
35And the LORDH3068 smoteH5062 BenjaminH1144 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 destroyedH7843 of BenjaminH1144 that dayH3117 twentyH6242 and fiveH2568 thousandH505 and an hundredH3967 menH376: allH3605 theseH428 drewH8025 the swordH2719.
