20 And Saul is called, and all the people who 'are' with him, and they come in unto the battle, and, lo, the sword of each hath been against his neighbour -- a very great destruction.
21 And the Hebrews 'who' have been for the Philistines as heretofore, who had gone up with them into the camp, have turned round, even they, to be with Israel who 'are' with Saul and Jonathan,
22 and all the men of Israel, who are hiding themselves in the hill-country of Ephraim, have heard that the Philistines have fled, and they pursue -- even they -- after them in battle.
23 And Jehovah saveth Israel on that day, and the battle hath passed over to Beth-Aven.
24 And the men of Israel have been distressed on that day, and Saul adjureth the people, saying, 'Cursed 'is' the man who eateth food till the evening, and I have been avenged of mine enemies;' and none of the people hath tasted food.
