16Now Saul’sH7586 watchmenH6822 in GibeahH1390 of BenjaminH1144 lookedH7200, and beholdH2009, the multitudeH1995 meltedH4127 awayH4127; and they wentH1980 hereH1988 and there. 17SaulH7586 saidH559 to the peopleH5971 whoH834 were with him, “1NumberH6485 nowH4994 and seeH7200 whoH4310 has goneH1980 from us.” And when they had 2numberedH6485, beholdH2009, JonathanH3083 and his armorH3627 bearerH5375 were not there. 18Then SaulH7586 saidH559 to AhijahH281, “3BringH5066 the arkH727 of GodH430 hereH5066.” For the arkH727 of GodH430 was at that timeH3117 with the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478. 194WhileH5704 SaulH7586 talkedH1696 to the priestH3548, the commotionH1995 in the campH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430 continuedH1980 and increasedH7227; so SaulH7586 saidH559 to the priestH3548, “WithdrawH622 your handH3027.” 20Then SaulH7586 and allH3605 the peopleH5971 whoH834 were with him ralliedH2199 and cameH935 to the battleH4421; and beholdH2009, 5everyH376 man’sH376 swordH2719 was against his fellowH7453, and there was veryH3966 greatH1419 confusionH4103. 21Now the HebrewsH5680 who were with the PhilistinesH6430 previouslyH865H8032, whoH834 wentH5927 up with them allH5439 aroundH5439 in the campH4264, evenH1571 6they alsoH1571 turned to be with the IsraelitesH3478 whoH834 were with SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083. 22When allH3605 the 7menH376 of IsraelH3478 who had hiddenH2244 themselves in the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669 heardH8085 that the PhilistinesH6430 had fledH5127, evenH1571 they alsoH1571 pursuedH1692 them closelyH1692 in the battleH4421. 23So 8the LordH3068 deliveredH3467 IsraelH3478 that dayH3117, and the battleH4421 9spreadH5674 beyondH5674 10Beth-avenH1007.
