Judges 20:34-36
1599 Geneva Bible
34 And they came over against Gibeah, ten thousand chosen men of all Israel, and the battle was sore: for they knew not that the [a]evil was near them.
35 ¶ And the Lord smote Benjamin before Israel, and the children of Israel destroyed of the Benjamites the same day five and twenty thousand and an hundred men: all they could handle the sword.
36 So the children of Benjamin saw that they were stricken down: for the men of Israel [b]gave place to the Benjamites, because they trusted to the men that lay in wait, which they had laid beside Gibeah.
