1 Samuel 13:4-15

And all Israel
<03478>
heard
<08085> (8804)
say
<0559> (8800)
[that] Saul
<07586>
had smitten
<05221> (8689)
a garrison
<05333>
of the Philistines
<06430>_,
and [that] Israel
<03478>
also was had in abomination
<0887> (8738)
with the Philistines
<06430>_.
And the people
<05971>
were called together
<06817> (8735)
after
<0310>
Saul
<07586>
to Gilgal
<01537>_.
{was...: Heb. did stink}
And the Philistines
<06430>
gathered themselves together
<0622> (8738)
to fight
<03898> (8736)
with Israel
<03478>_,
thirty
<07970>
thousand
<0505>
chariots
<07393>_,
and six
<08337>
thousand
<0505>
horsemen
<06571>_,
and people
<05971>
as the sand
<02344>
which [is] on the sea
<03220>
shore
<08193>
in multitude
<07230>_:
and they came up
<05927> (8799)_,
and pitched
<02583> (8799)
in Michmash
<04363>_,
eastward
<06926>
from Bethaven
<01007>_.
When the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
saw
<07200> (8804)
that they were in a strait
<06887> (8804)_,
(for the people
<05971>
were distressed
<05065> (8738),)
then the people
<05971>
did hide
<02244> (8691)
themselves in caves
<04631>_,
and in thickets
<02337>_,
and in rocks
<05553>_,
and in high places
<06877>_,
and in pits
<0953>_.
And [some of] the Hebrews
<05680>
went over
<05674> (8804)
Jordan
<03383>
to the land
<0776>
of Gad
<01410>
and Gilead
<01568>_.
As for Saul
<07586>_,
he [was] yet in Gilgal
<01537>_,
and all the people
<05971>
followed
<0310>
him trembling
<02729> (8804)_.
{followed...: Heb. trembled after him}
And he tarried
<03176> (8686) (8675) <03176> (8735)
seven
<07651>
days
<03117>_,
according to the set time
<04150>
that Samuel
<08050>
[had appointed]: but Samuel
<08050>
came
<0935> (8804)
not to Gilgal
<01537>_;
and the people
<05971>
were scattered
<06327> (8686)
from him.
And Saul
<07586>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Bring hither
<05066> (8685)
a burnt offering
<05930>
to me, and peace offerings
<08002>_.
And he offered
<05927> (8686)
the burnt offering
<05930>_.
And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end
<03615> (8763)
of offering
<05927> (8687)
the burnt offering
<05930>_,
behold, Samuel
<08050>
came
<0935> (8802)_;
and Saul
<07586>
went out
<03318> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
him, that he might salute
<01288> (8800)
him. {salute: Heb. bless}
And Samuel
<08050>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
What hast thou done
<06213> (8804)_?
And Saul
<07586>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Because I saw
<07200> (8804)
that the people
<05971>
were scattered
<05310> (8804)
from me, and [that] thou camest
<0935> (8804)
not within the days
<03117>
appointed
<04150>_,
and [that] the Philistines
<06430>
gathered themselves together
<0622> (8737)
at Michmash
<04363>_;
Therefore said
<0559> (8799)
I, The Philistines
<06430>
will come down
<03381> (8799)
now upon me to Gilgal
<01537>_,
and I have not made supplication
<02470> (8765)
unto
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_:
I forced
<0662> (8691)
myself therefore, and offered
<05927> (8686)
a burnt offering
<05930>_.
{made...: Heb. intreated the face [of]}
And Samuel
<08050>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Saul
<07586>_,
Thou hast done foolishly
<05528> (8738)_:
thou hast not kept
<08104> (8804)
the commandment
<04687>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
which he commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee: for now would the LORD
<03068>
have established
<03559> (8689)
thy kingdom
<04467>
upon Israel
<03478>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
But now thy kingdom
<04467>
shall not continue
<06965> (8799)_:
the LORD
<03068>
hath sought
<01245> (8765)
him a man
<0376>
after his own heart
<03824>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
hath commanded
<06680> (8762)
him [to be] captain
<05057>
over his people
<05971>_,
because thou hast not kept
<08104> (8804)
[that] which the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee.
And Samuel
<08050>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and gat him up
<05927> (8799)
from Gilgal
<01537>
unto Gibeah
<01390>
of Benjamin
<01144>_.
And Saul
<07586>
numbered
<06485> (8799)
the people
<05971>
[that were] present
<04672> (8737)
with him, about six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
men
<0376>_.
{present: Heb. found}
