1 Samuel 11:1-15

Then Nahash
<05176>

the Ammonite
<05984>

came up
<05927> (8799)_,

and encamped
<02583> (8799)

against Jabeshgilead
<03003> <01568>_:

and all the men
<0582>

of Jabesh
<03003>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Nahash
<05176>_,

Make
<03772> (8798)

a covenant
<01285>

with us, and we will serve
<05647> (8799)

thee.

And Nahash
<05176>

the Ammonite
<05984>

answered
<0559> (8799)

them, On this
<02063>

[condition] will I make
<03772> (8799)

[a covenant] with you, that I may thrust out
<05365> (8800)

all your right
<03225>

eyes
<05869>_,

and lay
<07760> (8804)

it [for] a reproach
<02781>

upon all Israel
<03478>_.

And the elders
<02205>

of Jabesh
<03003>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Give us seven
<07651>

days
<03117>_'

respite
<07503> (8685)_,

that we may send
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

unto all the coasts
<01366>

of Israel
<03478>_:

and then, if [there be] no man to save
<03467> (8688)

us, we will come out
<03318> (8804)

to thee. {Give...: Heb. Forbear us}

Then came
<0935> (8799)

the messengers
<04397>

to Gibeah
<01390>

of Saul
<07586>_,

and told
<01696> (8762)

the tidings
<01697>

in the ears
<0241>

of the people
<05971>_:

and all the people
<05971>

lifted up
<05375> (8799)

their voices
<06963>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)_.

And, behold, Saul
<07586>

came
<0935> (8804)

after
<0310>

the herd
<01241>

out of the field
<07704>_;

and Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

What [aileth] the people
<05971>

that they weep
<01058> (8799)_?

And they told
<05608> (8762)

him the tidings
<01697>

of the men
<0582>

of Jabesh
<03003>_.

And the Spirit
<07307>

of God
<0430>

came
<06743> (8799)

upon Saul
<07586>

when he heard
<08085> (8800)

those tidings
<01697>_,

and his anger
<0639>

was kindled
<02734> (8799)

greatly
<03966>_.

And he took
<03947> (8799)

a yoke
<06776>

of oxen
<01241>_,

and hewed them in pieces
<05408> (8762)_,

and sent
<07971> (8762)

[them] throughout all the coasts
<01366>

of Israel
<03478>

by the hands
<03027>

of messengers
<04397>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Whosoever cometh not forth
<03318> (8802)

after
<0310>

Saul
<07586>

and after
<0310>

Samuel
<08050>_,

so shall it be done
<06213> (8735)

unto his oxen
<01241>_.

And the fear
<06343>

of the LORD
<03068>

fell
<05307> (8799)

on the people
<05971>_,

and they came out
<03318> (8799)

with one
<0259>

consent
<0376>_.

{with...: Heb. as one man}

And when he numbered
<06485> (8799)

them in Bezek
<0966>_,

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

were three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

thousand
<0505>_,

and the men
<0376>

of Judah
<03063>

thirty
<07970>

thousand
<0505>_.

And they said
<0559> (8799)

unto the messengers
<04397>

that came
<0935> (8802)_,

Thus shall ye say
<0559> (8799)

unto the men
<0376>

of Jabeshgilead
<03003> <01568>_,

To morrow
<04279>_,

by [that time] the sun
<08121>

be hot
<02527>_,

ye shall have help
<08668>_.

And the messengers
<04397>

came
<0935> (8799)

and shewed
<05046> (8686)

[it] to the men
<0582>

of Jabesh
<03003>_;

and they were glad
<08055> (8799)_.

{help: or, deliverance}

Therefore the men
<0582>

of Jabesh
<03003>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

To morrow
<04279>

we will come out
<03318> (8799)

unto you, and ye shall do
<06213> (8804)

with us all that seemeth
<05869>

good
<02896>

unto you.

And it was [so] on the morrow
<04283>_,

that Saul
<07586>

put
<07760> (8799)

the people
<05971>

in three
<07969>

companies
<07218>_;

and they came
<0935> (8799)

into the midst
<08432>

of the host
<04264>

in the morning
<01242>

watch
<0821>_,

and slew
<05221> (8686)

the Ammonites
<05983>

until the heat
<02527>

of the day
<03117>_:

and it came to pass, that they which remained
<07604> (8737)

were scattered
<06327> (8799)_,

so that two
<08147>

of them were not left
<07604> (8738)

together
<03162>_.

And the people
<05971>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Samuel
<08050>_,

Who [is] he that said
<0559> (8802)_,

Shall Saul
<07586>

reign
<04427> (8799)

over us? bring
<05414> (8798)

the men
<0582>_,

that we may put them to death
<04191> (8686)_.

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

There shall not a man
<0376>

be put to death
<04191> (8714)

this day
<03117>_:

for to day
<03117>

the LORD
<03068>

hath wrought
<06213> (8804)

salvation
<08668>

in Israel
<03478>_.

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Samuel
<08050>

to the people
<05971>_,

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

and let us go
<03212> (8799)

to Gilgal
<01537>_,

and renew
<02318> (8762)

the kingdom
<04410>

there.

And all the people
<05971>

went
<03212> (8799)

to Gilgal
<01537>_;

and there they made Saul
<07586>

king
<04427> (8686)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>

in Gilgal
<01537>_;

and there they sacrificed
<02076> (8799)

sacrifices
<02077>

of peace offerings
<08002>

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_;

and there Saul
<07586>

and all the men
<0582>

of Israel
<03478>

rejoiced
<08055> (8799)

greatly
<03966>_.
