And when the men of Israel turned again, the men of Benjamin were amazed; for they saw that evil had come upon them.
42
Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel unto the way of the wilderness, but the battle overtook them; and those who came out of the cities they destroyed in the midst of them.

46
So all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty and five thousand men who drew the sword. All these were men of valor.
