1 Samuel 11:1-5

1Then NahashH5176 the AmmoniteH5984 came upH5927, and encampedH2583 against Jabesh–gileadH1568H3003: and all the menH582 of JabeshH3003 saidH559 unto NahashH5176, MakeH3772 a covenantH1285 with us, and we will serveH5647 thee. 2And NahashH5176 the AmmoniteH5984 answeredH559 them, On thisH2063 condition will I makeH3772 a covenant with you, that I may thrust outH5365 all your rightH3225 eyesH5869, and layH7760 it for a reproachH2781 upon all IsraelH3478. 3And the eldersH2205 of JabeshH3003 saidH559 unto him, Give us sevenH7651 days’H3117 respiteH7503, that we may sendH7971 messengersH4397 unto all the coastsH1366 of IsraelH3478: and then, if there be no man to saveH3467 us, we will come outH3318 to thee.1

4Then cameH935 the messengersH4397 to GibeahH1390 of SaulH7586, and toldH1696 the tidingsH1697 in the earsH241 of the peopleH5971: and all the peopleH5971 lifted upH5375 their voicesH6963, and weptH1058. 5And, behold, SaulH7586 cameH935 afterH310 the herdH1241 out of the fieldH7704; and SaulH7586 saidH559, What aileth the peopleH5971 that they weepH1058? And they toldH5608 him the tidingsH1697 of the menH582 of JabeshH3003.
