18. Saul then said to Ahijah, “Bring the ephod here.” (Ahijah was wearing the ephod before the Israelites at that time.)
19. While Saul was speaking to the priest, the uproar in the Philistine camp kept increasing. So he said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.”
20. And Saul and all his men rallied and rushed into the fight, where the Philistines, wholly confused, were thrusting swords at one another.
21. The Hebrews who had previously sided with the Philistines and had gone up with them to their camp turned to join the Israelites under Saul and Jonathan.
22. Likewise, all the Israelites who were hiding in the hill country of Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines were fleeing, kept after them in the battle.
23. Thus the Lord saved Israel that day. The battle continued past Beth-aven.
