1 Samuel 11:5-7

5Now beholdH2009, SaulH7586 was comingH935 from the fieldH7704 1behindH310 the oxenH1241, and 2he saidH559, “WhatH4100 is the matter with the peopleH5971 that they weepH1058?” So they relatedH5608 to him the wordsH1697 of the menH376 of JabeshH3003.

6Then 3the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 cameH6743 upon SaulH7586 mightilyH6743 when he heardH8085 theseH428 wordsH1697, and 4he becameH2734 veryH3966 angryH639H2734.

7He tookH3947 a yokeH6776 of oxenH1241 and 5cutH5408 them in piecesH5408, and sentH7971 them throughoutH3605 the territoryH1366 of IsraelH3478 by the handH3027 of messengersH4397, sayingH559, “6WhoeverH834 does not comeH3318 out afterH310 SaulH7586 and afterH310 SamuelH8050, soH3541 shall it be doneH6213 to his oxenH1241.” Then the dreadH6343 of the LordH3068 fellH5307 on the peopleH5971, and they cameH3318 out 7as oneH259 manH376.
