1 Samuel 13:5-8
5And the PhilistinesH6430 gathered themselves togetherH622 to fightH3898 with IsraelH3478, thirtyH7970 thousandH505 chariotsH7393, and sixH8337 thousandH505 horsemenH6571, and peopleH5971 as the sandH2344 which is on the seaH3220 shoreH8193 in multitudeH7230: and they came upH5927, and pitchedH2583 in MichmashH4363, eastwardH6926 from Beth–avenH1007. 6When the menH376 of IsraelH3478 sawH7200 that they were in a straitH6887, (for the peopleH5971 were distressedH5065,) then the peopleH5971 did hideH2244 themselves in cavesH4631, and in thicketsH2337, and in rocksH5553, and in high placesH6877, and in pitsH953. 7And some of the HebrewsH5680 went overH5674 JordanH3383 to the landH776 of GadH1410 and GileadH1568. As for SaulH7586, he was yet in GilgalH1537, and all the peopleH5971 followedH310 him tremblingH2729.1
8And he tarriedH3176 sevenH7651 daysH3117, according to the set timeH4150 that SamuelH8050 had appointed: but SamuelH8050 cameH935 not to GilgalH1537; and the peopleH5971 were scatteredH6327 from him.
