On the first day the children of Benjamin destroy twenty-two thousand men of Israel
첫날 베냐민 자손이 이스라엘 사람 이만 이천을 엎드러뜨림
Judges 20:19–23: the children of Israel rise up in the morning and encamp against Gibeah. The men of Israel go out to battle against Benjamin; and the men of Israel set the battle in array against them at Gibeah. The children of Benjamin come out of Gibeah, and on that day destroy twenty-two thousand of the Israelite men down to the ground. The people, the men of Israel, encourage themselves, and set the battle again in array in the place where they set themselves in array the first day. The children of Israel go up and weep before the LORD until evening; and they ask of the LORD, saying, “Shall I again draw near to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother?” The LORD says, “Go up against him.”
