15In only one day the Benjaminites got 26,000 soldiers together who were trained with swords. They also had 700 chosen men from Gibeah. 16Seven hundred of these trained soldiers were left-handed, each of whom could sling a stone at a hair and not miss!
17The Israelites, except for the Benjaminites, gathered 400,000 soldiers with swords.
