- 便雅憫人也出來迎敵、就被引誘離城.在田間兩條路上、一通伯特利、一通基比亞、像前兩次、動手殺死以色列人約有三十個。
- 便雅憫人說、他們仍舊敗在我們面前.但以色列人說、我們不如逃跑引誘他們離開城到路上來。
- 以色列眾人都起來、在巴力他瑪擺陣.以色列的伏兵、從馬利迦巴埋伏的地方衝上前去。
- 有以色列人中的一萬精兵、來到基比亞前接戰、勢派甚是兇猛.便雅憫人卻不知道災禍臨近了。
- 耶和華使以色列人殺敗便雅憫人.那日以色列人殺死便雅憫人二萬五千一百、都是拿刀的。

- The sons of Benjamin went out against the people and were drawn away from the city, and they began to strike and kill some of the people as at other times, on the highways, one of which goes up to Bethel and the other to Gibeah, and in the field, about thirty men of Israel.
- The sons of Benjamin said, "They are struck down before us, as at the first." But the sons of Israel said, "Let us flee that we may draw them away from the city to the highways."
- Then all the men of Israel arose from their place and arrayed themselves at Baal-tamar; and the men of Israel in ambush broke out of their place, even out of Maareh-geba.
- When ten thousand choice men from all Israel came against Gibeah, the battle became fierce; but Benjamin did not know that disaster was close to them.
- And the LORD struck Benjamin before Israel, so that the sons of Israel destroyed 25,100 men of Benjamin that day, all who draw the sword.
