1 Samuel 14:47-48

Context
14:47 After Saul had secured his royal position over Israel, he fought against all their 1  enemies on all sides – the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines. In every direction that he turned he was victorious. 2  14:48 He fought bravely, striking down the Amalekites and delivering Israel from the hand of its enemies. 3 

1 tn Heb “his,” which could refer to Israel or to Saul.

2 tc The translation follows the LXX (“he was delivered”), rather than the MT, which reads, “he acted wickedly.”

3 tn Heb “plunderers.”
