1 Samuel 11:5-7

5And, behold, SaulH7586 cameH935 following the oxenH1241 out of the fieldH7704; and SaulH7586 saidH559, What aileth the peopleH5971 that they weepH1058? And they told him the wordsH1697 of the menH376 of JabeshH3003.

6And the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 came mightily upon SaulH7586 when he heardH8085 those wordsH1697, and his angerH639 was kindled greatly. 7And he tookH3947 a yoke of oxenH1241, and cutH5408 them in pieces, and sentH7971 them throughout all the bordersH1366 of IsraelH3478 by the handH3027 of messengersH4397, sayingH559, Whosoever cometh not forthH3318 after SaulH7586 and after SamuelH8050, so shall it be done unto his oxenH1241. And the dreadH6343 of Jehovah fellH5307 on the peopleH5971, and they cameH3318 out as oneH259 manH376.
