Judges 20:45

45 The rest ^{▼▼tn Heb “they”; the referent (the rest [of the Benjaminites]) has been specified in the translation for clarity.} turned and ran toward the wilderness, heading toward the cliff of Rimmon. But the Israelites ^{▼▼tn Heb “and they”; the referent (the Israelites) has been specified in the translation for clarity.} caught ^{▼▼tn Heb “gleaned.” The word is an agricultural term which pictures Israelites picking off the Benjaminites as easily as one picks grapes from the vine.} 5,000 of them on the main roads. They stayed right on their heels ^{▼▼tn Heb “stuck close after them.”} all the way to Gidom and struck down 2,000 more.
