Judges 20:36 in Context — Judges 20

34 E vieram contra Gibeá dez mil homens escolhidos de todo Israel, e a batalha começou a agravar-se: mas eles não sabiam que o mal se aproximava sobre eles.

35 E feriu o SENHOR a Benjamim diante de Israel; e mataram os filhos de Israel aquele dia vinte e cinco mil e cem homens de Benjamim, todos os quais tiravam espada.

36 E viram os filhos de Benjamim que eram mortos; pois os filhos de Israel haviam dado lugar a Benjamim, porque estavam confiantes nas emboscadas que haviam posto detrás de Gibeá.

37 Então as emboscadas atacaram prontamente Gibeá, e se estenderam, e passaram à espada toda a cidade.

38 Já os israelitas estavam combinados com as emboscadas, que fizessem muito fogo, para que subisse grande fumaça da cidade.
