Judges 20:40-42

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁴⁰ But when the cloud, a column of smoke, began to rise out of the city, the Benjaminites looked behind them—and there was the whole city going up in smoke towards the sky! ⁴¹ Then the main body of Israel turned, and the Benjaminites were dismayed, for they saw that disaster was close upon them. ⁴² Therefore they turned away from the Israelites in the direction of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them, and those who came out of the city^[a] were slaughtering them in between.^[b]
