And there was trembling in the host, in the field, and among all the people: the garrison, and the spoilers, they also trembled, and the earth quaked: so it was a very great trembling.

Verse 15 is found in chapter 14 of 1 Samuel. Jonathan and his armor-bearer attack the Philistines and confusion spreads through the enemy camp. The text attributes the victory to the Lord, who creates terror among the Philistines and enables Israel to advance. Saul initially does not know the cause of the disorder, while Jonathan has acted confidently. The scene shows that effective military leadership can arise from someone who recognizes that the battle belongs to the Lord. It also contrasts Jonathan’s initiative with Saul’s hesitation.

Und es kam ein Schrecken ins Lager auf dem Felde und ins ganze Volk; die Wache und die streifenden Rotten erschraken auch, also daß das Land erbebte; denn es war ein Schrecken von Gott.
Y hubo temblor en el real y por el campo, y entre toda la gente de la guarnición; y los que habían ido a hacer correrías, también ellos temblaron, y alborotose la tierra: hubo pues gran consternación.
El pánico se extendió por el campamento, por el campo y entre toda la tropa. También la guarnición y los saqueadores temblaron. La tierra se estremeció, y hubo un terror enviado por Dios.
L'effroi se répandit au camp, dans la contrée et parmi tout le peuple; le poste et ceux qui ravageaient furent également saisis de peur; le pays fut dans l'épouvante. C'était comme une terreur de Dieu.
E vi fu spavento nell’oste, e nella campagna, e fra tutta la gente; la guernigione anch’essa, e quelli che facevano il guasto furono spaventati, e il paese fu commosso; e questo fu come uno spavento mandato da Dio
E houve tremor no arraial, no campo e em todo o povo; também a mesma guarnição e os saqueadores tremeram, até a terra se estremeceu porquanto era tremor de Deus.
於是在軍營、在田野、在眾百姓中,人心惶惶,駐軍和突擊隊都戰兢;地也震動,這是從上帝那裏來的驚恐 。
