reigned

year ;
and
when
he
had
reigned
two years over Israel,
A
son
of
a
year `is'
Saul
in
his
reigning,
yea,
two years he
hath
reigned
over Israel,
Saul chose
him
three thousand men of Israel; whereof
two thousand were
with Saul in Michmash and in mount
Bethel,
and a thousand were
with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin :
and the rest
of the people he sent every
man
to his tent
.
and
Saul chooseth
for
himself
three thousand `
men '
out
of Israel; and
two thousand are
with Saul in Michmash ,
and in the
hill-country
of
Beth-El;
and a thousand have
been
with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin ;
and the remnant
of the people he hath
sent each
to his tents
.
And Jonathan smote
the garrison of the Philistines that
was
in Geba, and the Philistines heard
of
it.
And Saul blew
the
trumpet throughout
all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear.
And Jonathan smiteth
the garrison of the Philistines which
`is'
in Geba, and the Philistines hear,
and Saul hath
blown
with
a
trumpet through
all the land, saying, `
Let the Hebrews hear. '
And all Israel heard say
that
Saul had
smitten a
garrison of the Philistines, and that
Israel
also was
had
in
abomination
with
the Philistines .
And the people were
called together
after Saul to Gilgal.
And all Israel have
heard ,
saying,
`
Saul hath
smitten the
garrison of the Philistines, '
and also ,
`Israel
hath
been
abhorred
by
the Philistines ;'

called after Saul to Gilgal.
And the Philistines gathered themselves
together
to fight with Israel ,
thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea shore in
multitude :
and they came
up ,
and pitched
in Michmash, eastward
from
Bethaven
.

people as the sand which `
is '
on the sea -
shore for

up and encamp
in Michmash, east
of
Beth-Aven
.
When
the men of Israel saw
that they were
in
a
strait
, (for
the people were
distressed
, )
then
the people did
hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.

And some
of
the
Hebrews went
over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead .
As
for
Saul ,
he
was
yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed
him trembling
.
And Hebrews have
passed
over the
Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead ;
and
Saul `is'
yet in Gilgal, and all the people have
trembled
after
him.
And he tarried
seven days, according to the set
time
that
Samuel had
appointed:
but
Samuel came
not to Gilgal ;
and the people were
scattered from him.
And he waiteth
seven days, according to the appointment
with
Samuel ,
and
Samuel hath
not come
to Gilgal ,
and the people are
scattered from off
him.
And Saul said
, Bring hither
a
burnt offering to
me
, and peace offerings .
And he offered
the burnt offering.
And Saul saith
, `
Bring nigh
unto
me
the
burnt -
offering, and the
peace -
offerings ;'
and he causeth
the burnt -
offering to
ascend
.
And it came
to pass ,
that
as
soon
as
he
had
made
an
end
of
offering
the burnt offering, behold
, Samuel came;
and Saul went
out to meet him, that
he
might
salute
him .
And it cometh
to pass at
his
completing
to
cause
the burnt -
offering to
ascend
, that
lo
, Samuel hath
come,
and Saul goeth
out to meet him, to
bless
him ;
And Samuel said
, What hast thou done? And Saul said
, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that
thou camest
not within
the days appointed
, and that
the Philistines gathered themselves
together
at
Michmash ;
and Samuel saith
, `
What hast thou done? '
And Saul saith
, `
Because I saw that the people were scattered from off
me, and thou hadst
not come
at
the appointment
of
the
days, and the Philistines are
gathered to
Michmash ,
Therefore
said
I, The Philistines will
come down now
upon
me to Gilgal, and I have not made
supplication
unto
the
LORD:
I forced
myself therefore
, and offered
a
burnt offering.
and
I say
, Now
do
the Philistines come down unto
me to Gilgal, and the
face
of
Jehovah
I have not appeased;
and
I force
myself, and cause
the
burnt -
offering to
ascend
. '
And Samuel said
to
Saul, Thou hast done
foolishly:
thou hast not kept the commandment
of the
LORD
thy God, which he commanded thee :
for now would
the
LORD
have
established thy kingdom upon
Israel for
ever.
And Samuel saith
unto
Saul, `
Thou hast been
foolish;
thou hast not kept the command
of Jehovah
thy God, which He commanded thee ,
for now had
Jehovah
established thy kingdom over
Israel unto
the
age;
But
now thy kingdom shall
not continue:
the
LORD
hath sought him
a man after
his own heart, and the
LORD
hath
commanded
him to
be
captain
over his people, because
thou hast not kept that which the
LORD
commanded thee.
and,
now ,
thy kingdom doth
not stand,
Jehovah
hath sought for
Himself
a man according
to
His own heart, and Jehovah
chargeth
him for
leader
over His people, for
thou hast not kept that which Jehovah
commanded thee. '
And Samuel arose
, and gat
him
up from Gilgal unto
Gibeah of Benjamin .
And Saul numbered
the people that
were
present
with him, about six hundred men .
And Samuel riseth
, and goeth
up from Gilgal to
Gibeah of Benjamin ;
and Saul inspecteth
the people who
are
found
with him, about six hundred men ,
And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that
were
present
with them, abode
in Gibeah of Benjamin :
but
the Philistines encamped in Michmash.
and Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people who
are
found
with them, are
abiding
in Gibeah of Benjamin ,
and
the Philistines have
encamped in Michmash.
And the spoilers
came
out of
the camp of the Philistines in
three companies:
one company
turned
unto the way that
leadeth
to
Ophrah, unto the land of Shual :
And the destroyer
goeth
out from
the camp of the Philistines --
three detachments;
the
one detachment
turneth
unto the way of
Ophrah, unto the land of Shual ;
And another
company
turned
the way to
Bethhoron:
and another
company
turned
to
the way of the border that
looketh
to
the valley of Zeboim toward the wilderness.
and the one
detachment
turneth
the
way of
Beth-Horon,
and the one
detachment
turneth
the
way of the border which
is
looking
on
the valley of the
Zeboim ,
toward the wilderness.
Now
there
was
no
smith
found throughout
all the land of Israel :
for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make them
swords
or spears:
And
an
artificer
is
not
found in
all the land of Israel ,
for the Philistines said, `
Lest the Hebrews make sword
or spear;'
But
all the
Israelites
went
down to the Philistines, to sharpen every
man
his share
, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock .
and
all Israel
go
down to the Philistines, to sharpen each
his ploughshare
, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock ;
Yet
they
had
a
file for the
mattocks, and for the
coulters, and for the
forks
, and for the axes, and to sharpen
the goads.
and
there
hath
been
the
file for mattocks, and for coulters, and for three-pronged
rakes
, and for the axes, and to set
up
the goads.
So
it came
to
pass
in the day of battle, that there was
neither
sword nor
spear found
in the hand of any of the people that
were
with Saul and Jonathan:
but
with Saul and with
Jonathan his son was
there
found
.
And
it hath
been,
in the day of battle, that there hath
not
been
found
sword and
spear in the hand of any of the people who
`are'
with Saul and with Jonathan
--
and
there
is
found
to
Saul and to
Jonathan his son.
And the garrison
of the Philistines went
out to
the passage of Michmash.
And the station
of the Philistines goeth
out unto
the passage of Michmash.
