Compare all
4 So the messengers came ato Gibeah of Saul and told the news in the hearing of the people. And ball the people lifted up their voices and wept.  
5 Now there was Saul, coming behind the herd from the field; and Saul said, “What troubles the people, that they weep?” And they told him the words of the men of Jabesh.
6 aThen the Spirit of God came upon Saul when he heard this news, and his anger was greatly aroused.  
7 So he took a yoke of oxen and acut them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the territory of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, b“Whoever does not go out with Saul and Samuel to battle, so it shall be done to his oxen.” And the fear of the Lord fell on the people, and they came out1 with one consent.  
8 When he numbered them in aBezek, the children bof Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.  
9 And they said to the messengers who came, “Thus you shall say to the men of Jabesh Gilead: ‘Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you shall have help.’ ” Then the messengers came and reported it to the men of Jabesh, and they were glad.
10 Therefore the men of Jabesh said, “Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you may do with us whatever seems good to you.”
11 So it was, on the next day, that aSaul put the people bin three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and killed Ammonites until the heat of the day. And it happened that those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.  
12 Then the people said to Samuel, a“Who is he who said, ‘Shall Saul reign over us?’ bBring the men, that we may put them to death.”  
13 But Saul said, a“Not a man shall be put to death this day, for today bthe Lord has accomplished salvation in Israel.”
