Judges 20:22-25
The Voice
23 The people of Israel presented themselves before the Eternal and wept until evening came. They laid before Him the question:
Israelites: Should we go back into battle tomorrow against our kin, the Benjaminites?
Eternal One: Yes. Go back into battle.
22 The warriors of Israel took courage and drew up their battle lines where they had been at the beginning of the fight on the first day.[a] 24-25 In obedience to God, for a second day the Israelites advanced against the Benjaminites. But the warriors of Benjamin came out of Gibeah, struck down 18,000 warriors of Israel, and won another great victory.
