Judges 20:43 in Context — Judges 20
41 Les hommes d’Israël avaient fait volte-face; et ceux de Benjamin furent épouvantés, en voyant le désastre qui allait les atteindre.
42 Ils tournèrent le dos devant les hommes d’Israël, et s’enfuirent par le chemin du désert. Mais les assaillants s’attachèrent à leurs pas, et ils détruisirent pendant le trajet ceux qui étaient sortis des villes.
43 Ils enveloppèrent Benjamin, le poursuivirent, l’écrasèrent dès qu’il voulait se reposer, jusqu’en face de Guibea du côté du soleil levant.
44 Il tomba dix-huit mille hommes de Benjamin, tous vaillants.
45 Parmi ceux qui tournèrent le dos pour s’enfuir vers le désert au rocher de Rimmon, les hommes d’Israël en firent périr cinq mille sur les routes; ils les poursuivirent jusqu’à Guideom, et ils en tuèrent deux mille.
