20:35
And Yahweh smote Binyamin before Yisrael: and the children of Yisrael destroyed of the Benyeminim that day twenty and five thousand and an hundred men: all these drew the sword. |
20:36
So the children°

בִּניָמִין°
saw°°
that°
they were smitten:°°
for the men°
of
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
gave°°
place°
to the
Benyæmînîm

because°
they trusted°°

which°
they had set°°

|
20:36
So the children of Binyamin saw that they were smitten: for the men of Yisrael gave place to the Benyeminim, because they trusted unto the liers in wait which they had set beside Givah. |

And the liers in wait°°
hasted,°°
and rushed°°
upon°

|
20:37
And the liers in wait hasted, and rushed upon Givah; and the liers in wait drew [themselves] along, and smote all the city with the edge of the sword. |
20:38
Now there was°
an appointed sign°
between the men°
of
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°

the liers in wait,°°
that they should make a great°°
flame°

the city.° |
|
20:38
Now there was an appointed sign between the men of Yisrael and the liers in wait, that they should make a great flame with smoke rise up out of the city. |
20:39

retired°°
in the battle,°
Binyämîn
בִּניָמִין°
began°°
to smite°°
[and] kill°
of the men°

Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
about thirty°

battle.° |
|
20:39
And when the men of Yisrael retired in the battle, Binyamin began to smite [and] kill of the men of Yisrael about thirty persons: for they said, Surely they are smitten down before us, as [in] the first battle. |

began°°
to arise up°°
out of°
the city°
with a pillar°
of smoke,°
the
Benyæmînîm

looked°°
behind°

the flame°
of the city°
ascended up°°
to heaven.° |
|
20:40
But when the flame began to arise up out of the city with a pillar of smoke, the Benyeminim looked behind them, and, behold, the flame of the city ascended up to heaven. |
20:41
And when the men°
of
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
turned again,°°
the men°
of
Binyämîn
בִּניָמִין°
were amazed:°°
for°
they saw°°
that°
evil°
was come°°
upon°
them. |
|
20:41
And when the men of Yisrael turned again, the men of Binyamin were amazed: for they saw that evil was come upon them. |
20:42
Therefore they turned°°
[their backs] before°
the men°
of
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
unto°
the way°
of the wilderness;°
but the battle°
overtook°°
them; and them which°

|
20:42
Therefore they turned [their backs] before the men of Yisrael unto the way of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and them which [came] out of the cities they destroyed in the midst of them. |
20:43
[Thus] they inclosed°°
the
Benyæmînîm
בֶּניְמִינִים°

|
20:43
[Thus] they inclosed the Benyeminim round about, [and] chased them, [and] trode them down with ease over against Givah toward the sunrising. |

|
20:44
