Judges 20:21-23

International Children’s Bible

²¹ Then the Benjaminites came out of Gibeah. They killed 22,000 Israelites during the battle that day. ^22-23 The Israelites went before the Lord. They cried until evening. They asked the Lord, “Shall we go to fight our relatives, the Benjaminites, again?”

The Lord answered, “Go up and fight them.” The men of Israel encouraged each other. So they took the same battle positions they had taken the first day.
