First Samuel 14:16

And Saul's watchmen in Givat-Benjamin looked, and behold, the crowds were melting (in disarray) and they were going here and there. [The word for "in disarray" is literally the word for melting and describes a change that cannot be resisted. The people are shaking with fear and cannot do anything about the situation. ]
