⁴ In that day,” says the Lord, ^(A)“I will strike every horse with confusion, and its rider with madness; I will open My eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.

^12 (A)“The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. ¹³ These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast. ^14 (B)These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will ^(C)overcome them, ^(D)for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; ^(E)and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.”

¹⁵ Then he said to me, ^(F)“The waters which you saw, where the harlot sits, ^(G)are peoples, multitudes, nations, and tongues. ¹⁶ And the ten horns which you ^[a]saw on the beast, ^(H)these will hate the harlot, make her ^(I)desolate ^(J)and naked, eat her flesh and ^(K)burn her with fire. ^17 (L)For God has put it into their hearts to fulfill His purpose, to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, ^(M)until the words of God are fulfilled.

⁶ For I will no longer pity the inhabitants of the land,” says the Lord. “But indeed I will give everyone into his neighbor’s hand and into the hand of his king. They shall ^[a]attack the land, and I will not deliver them from their hand.”

²¹ I will ^(A)call for ^(B)a sword against Gog throughout all My mountains,” says the Lord God. ^(C)“Every man’s sword will be against his brother.

²² Now when they began to sing and to praise, ^(A)the Lord set ambushes against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were defeated. ²³ For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir to utterly kill and destroy them. And when they ^[a]had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, ^(B)they helped to destroy one another.

²⁴ So when Judah came to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked toward the multitude; and there were their dead bodies, fallen on the earth. No one had escaped.

¹⁵ And ^(A)there was ^[a]trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. The garrison and ^(B)the raiders also trembled; and the earth quaked, so that it was ^(C)a very great trembling. ¹⁶ Now the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and there was the multitude, melting away; and they ^(D)went here and there. ¹⁷ Then Saul said to the people who were with him, “Now call the roll and see who has gone from us.” And when they had called the roll, surprisingly, Jonathan and his armorbearer were not there. ¹⁸ And Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the ^[b]ark of God here” (for at that time the ark of God was with the children of Israel). ¹⁹ Now it happened, while Saul ^(E)talked to the priest, that the noise which was in the camp of the Philistines continued to increase; so Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.” ²⁰ Then Saul and all the people who were with him assembled, and they went to the battle; and indeed ^(F)every man’s sword was against his neighbor, and there was very great confusion. ²¹ Moreover the Hebrews who were with the Philistines before that time, who went up with them into the camp from the surrounding country, they also joined the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan. ²² Likewise all the men of Israel who ^(G)had hidden in the mountains of Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, they also followed hard after them in the battle. ^23 (H)So the Lord saved Israel that day, and the battle shifted ^(I)to Beth Aven.

²² When the three hundred ^(A)blew the trumpets, ^(B)the Lord set ^(C)every man’s sword against his companion throughout the whole camp; and the army fled to ^[a]Beth Acacia, toward Zererah, as far as the border of ^(D)Abel Meholah, by Tabbath.
