Judges 20:40
King James Version
“But when the flame began to arise up out of the city with a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them, and, behold, the flame of the city ascended up to heaven.”
Context
37And the liers in wait hasted, and rushed upon Gibeah; and the liers in wait drew along, and smote all the city with the edge of the sword.
38Now there was an appointed sign between the men of Israel and the liers in wait, that they should make a great flame with smoke rise up out of the city.
39And when the men of Israel retired in the battle, Benjamin began to smite kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons: for they said, Surely they are smitten down before us, as the first battle.
40But when the flame began to arise up out of the city with a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them, and, behold, the flame of the city ascended up to heaven.
41And when the men of Israel turned again, the men of Benjamin were amazed: for they saw that evil was come upon them.
42Therefore they turned before the men of Israel unto the way of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and them which out of the cities they destroyed in the midst of them.
43they inclosed the Benjamites round about, chased them, trode them down with ease over against Gibeah toward the sunrising.
