1 Samuel 13:2-7
2Now SaulH7586 choseH977 for himself threeH7969 thousandH505 men of IsraelH3478, of whom twoH505 thousandH505 were with SaulH7586 in 1MichmashH4363 and in the hillH2022 countryH2022 of BethelH1008, while a thousandH505 were with JonathanH3083 at 2GibeahH1390 of BenjaminH1144. But he sentH7971 the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 awayH7971, eachH376 to his tentH168. 3And JonathanH3083 attackedH5221 3the garrisonH5333 of the PhilistinesH6430 that was in 4GebaH1387, and the PhilistinesH6430 heardH8085 about it. Then SaulH7586 5blewH8628 the trumpetH7782 throughoutH3605 the landH776, sayingH559, “Let the HebrewsH5680 hearH8085!” 4And allH3605 IsraelH3478 heardH8085 6the newsH559 that SaulH7586 had attackedH5221 the garrisonH5333 of the PhilistinesH6430, and alsoH1571 that IsraelH3478 7had becomeH887 repulsiveH887 to the PhilistinesH6430. Then the peopleH5971 were summonedH6817 8to SaulH7586 at GilgalH1537.
5Now the PhilistinesH6430 assembledH622 to fightH3898 with IsraelH3478, thirtyH7970 thousandH505 chariotsH7393 and sixH8337 thousandH505 horsemenH6571, and 9peopleH5971 like the sandH2344 whichH834 is on the seashoreH3220H8193 in abundanceH7230; and they cameH5927 upH5927 and campedH2583 in MichmashH4363, eastH6926 of 10Beth-avenH1007. 6When the menH376 of IsraelH3478 sawH7200 that they were in troubleH6862 (for the peopleH5971 were hard-pressedH5065), then 11the peopleH5971 keptH2244 themselves hiddenH2244 in cavesH4631, in crevicesH2336, in cliffsH5553, in cryptsH6877, and in pitsH953. 7And some of the HebrewsH5680 crossedH5674 the JordanH3383 into the landH776 of 12GadH1410 and GileadH1568. But as for SaulH7586, he was stillH5750 in GilgalH1537, and allH3605 the peopleH5971 followedH310 him, tremblingH2729.
