When the men of Benjamin came out to attack, they were drawn away from the town. And as they had done before, they began to kill the Israelites. About thirty Israelites died in the open fields and along the roads, one leading to Bethel and the other leading back to Gibeah.

Then the men of Benjamin saw that they were beaten. The Israelites had retreated from Benjamin’s warriors in order to give those hiding in ambush more room to maneuver against Gibeah.Then those who were hiding rushed in from all sides and killed everyone in the town.They had arranged to send up a large cloud of smoke from the town as a signal.When the Israelites saw the smoke, they turned and attacked Benjamin’s warriors. By that time Benjamin’s warriors had killed about thirty Israelites, and they shouted,“ We’re defeating them as we did in the first battle!”

You will say,‘ Israel is an unprotected land filled with unwalled villages! I will march against her and destroy these people who live in such confidence!I will go to those formerly desolate cities that are now filled with people who have returned from exile in many nations. I will capture vast amounts of plunder, for the people are rich with livestock and other possessions now. They think the whole world revolves around them!’But Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish will ask,‘ Do you really think the armies you have gathered can rob them of silver and gold? Do you think you can drive away their livestock and seize their goods and carry off plunder?’“ Therefore, son of man, prophesy against Gog. Give him this message from the Sovereign Lord: When my people are living in peace in their land, then you will rouse yourself.You will come from your homeland in the distant north with your vast cavalry and your mighty army,and you will attack my people Israel, covering their land like a cloud. At that time in the distant future, I will bring you against my land as everyone watches, and my holiness will be displayed by what happens to you, Gog. Then all the nations will know that I am the Lord.“ This is what the Sovereign Lord asks: Are you the one I was talking about long ago, when I announced through Israel’s prophets that in the future I would bring you against my people?But this is what the Sovereign Lord says: When Gog invades the land of Israel, my fury will boil over!In my jealousy and blazing anger, I promise a mighty shaking in the land of Israel on that day.All living things— the fish in the sea, the birds of the sky, the animals of the field, the small animals that scurry along the ground, and all the people on earth— will quake in terror at my presence. Mountains will be thrown down; cliffs will crumble; walls will fall to the earth.I will summon the sword against you on all the hills of Israel, says the Sovereign Lord. Your men will turn their swords against each other.I will punish you and your armies with disease and bloodshed; I will send torrential rain, hailstones, fire, and burning sulfur!

Then I saw the beast and the kings of the world and their armies gathered together to fight against the one sitting on the horse and his army.And the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who did mighty miracles on behalf of the beast— miracles that deceived all who had accepted the mark of the beast and who worshiped his statue. Both the beast and his false prophet were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.Their entire army was killed by the sharp sword that came from the mouth of the one riding the white horse. And the vultures all gorged themselves on the dead bodies.
