13. But Jeroboam caused an ambush to come about behind them; so they were before Judah, and the ambush was behind them.
14. So when Judah looked back, behold, the battle was before and behind; and they cried unto the Lord, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.

16. And the sons of Israel fled before Judah, and God delivered them into their hand.
