In context

40But when the column of smoke began to go up from the city, the Benjamites looked behind them and saw the whole city going up in smoke.

41Then the men of Israel turned back on them, and the men of Benjamin were terrified when they realized that disaster had come upon them.

42So they fled before the men of Israel toward the wilderness, but the battle overtook them, and the men coming out of the cities struck them down there.

43They surrounded the Benjamites, pursued them, and easily overtook them in the vicinity of Gibeah on the east.

44And 18,000 Benjamites fell, all men of valor.
