When, therefore, they had come to this resolution, as being best
for them, they went against their enemies; but those enemies were not dismayed
either at the attack itself, or at the great multitude that made it, and
received them with great courage. Many of the Hebrews were slain; and the
remainder of the army, upon the disorder of their troops, were pursued,
and fled, after a shameful manner, to their camp. Whereupon this unexpected
misfortune made them quite despond; and they hoped for nothing that was
good; as gathering from it, that this affliction came from the wrath of
God, because they rashly went out to war without his approbation.
