Revised Version 1895
1 Samuel 11:4-10
4Then cameH935 the messengersH4397 to GibeahH1390 of SaulH7586, and spake theseH1696 wordsH1697 in the earsH241 of the peopleH5971: and allH3605 the peopleH5971 liftedH5375 upH5375 their voiceH6963, and weptH1058.
5And, beholdH2009, SaulH7586 cameH935 followingH310 the oxenH1241 outH4480 of the fieldH7704; and SaulH7586 saidH559, WhatH4100 aileth the peopleH5971 that they weepH1058? And they toldH559 him the wordsH1697 of the menH376 of JabeshH3003.
6And the spiritH7307 of GodH430 cameH7307 mightily uponH5921 SaulH7586 when he heardH8085 thoseH428 wordsH1697, and his angerH639 was kindledH2734 greatlyH3966.
7And he tookH3947 a yokeH6776 of oxenH1241, and cutH5408 them in piecesH5408, and sentH7971 them throughoutH3605 allH3605 the bordersH1366 of IsraelH3478 by the handH3027 of messengersH4397, sayingH559, Whosoever cometh notH369 forthH3318 afterH310 SaulH7586 and afterH310 SamuelH8050, soH6213 shall it be doneH6213 unto his oxenH1241. And the dreadH6343 of the LORDH3068 fellH5307 on the peopleH5971, and they cameH3318 outH3318 as one manH376.
8And he numberedH6485 them in BezekH966; and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were threeH7969 hundredH3967 thousandH505, and the menH376 of JudahH3063 thirtyH7970 thousandH505.
9And they saidH559 unto the messengersH4397 that cameH935, ThusH3541 shall ye sayH559 unto the menH376 of Jabesh-gilead, TomorrowH4279, by the time the sunH8121 is hotH2527, ye shall have deliveranceH8668. And the messengersH4397 cameH935 and toldH5046 the menH376 of JabeshH3003; and they were gladH8055.
10Therefore the menH376 of JabeshH3003 saidH559, TomorrowH4279 weH3605 will comeH3318 outH3318 unto youH3605, and ye shall doH6213 with usH413 allH3605 that seemeth goodH2896 unto youH3605.
