26 And he sent spies into his camp, and they came again, and reported to him that they were appointed in such and such a way to fall upon them in the night season.
27 But as soon as the sun was down, Jonathan commanded his men to watch, and to be in arms, that all the night long they might be ready for battle: and he put forth sentinels round about the camp.
28 And the adversaries heard that Jonathan and his men were ready for battle, and they feared, and trembled in their hearts, and they kindled fires in their camp
29 But Jonathan and his men knew it not till the morning; for they saw the lights burning.
30 And Jonathan pursued after them, and overtook them not; for they were gone over the river Eleutherus.
31 And Jonathan turned aside to the Arabians, who are called Zabadaeans, and struck them, and took their spoils.
32 And he came out from thence, and came to Damascus, and took his journey through all the country.
