*
And there was a panic in the camp ,
in the field ,
and among all the people ;
the garrison and even the raiders trembled ;
the earth quaked ;
and it became a very great panic .
*
And the watchmen of Saul in Gib '
e-ah of Benjamin looked ;
and behold ,
the multitude was surging hither and thither .
*

And when they had numbered ,

Jonathan and his armor-bearer were not there .
*

Bring hither the ark of God ."

the tumult in the camp of the Philistines increased more and more ;
and Saul said to the priest , "
Withdraw your hand ."
*
Then Saul and all the people who were with him rallied and went into the battle ;
and behold ,
every man '
s sword was against his fellow ,
and there was very great confusion .
*
Now the Hebrews who had been with the Philistines before that time and who had gone up with them into the camp ,
even they also turned to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan .
*
Likewise ,
when all the men of Israel who had hid themselves in the hill country of E '
phraim heard that the Philistines were fleeing ,
they too followed hard after them in the battle .
*
So the LORD delivered Israel that day ;
and the battle passed beyond Beth-a '
ven .
