They spread out and struck the entire city with the sword. 38 The appointed signal between the men of Israel and the ambush was to send up a great column of smoke from the city. 39 When the Israelites turned in the battle, the Benjaminites had begun killing about thirty Israelites and thought, 'We are defeating them as in the first battle.' 40 But when the column of smoke began to rise from the city, the Benjaminites turned back and saw the entire city going up in smoke toward the sky. 41 Then the Israelites turned on them, and the Benjaminites were terrified because they saw that disaster had overtaken them. 42 They fled before the Israelites toward the wilderness, but they were overtaken, and those who came out of the cities destroyed them. 43 They surrounded the Benjaminites, pursued them, and overran them until they were opposite Gibeah on the east side.
