Saul Saves Jabesh Gilead
1 Then aNahash the Ammonite came up and encamped against bJabesh Gilead; and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, c“Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you.”
2 And Nahash the Ammonite answered them, “On this condition I will make a covenant with you, that I may put out all your right eyes, and bring areproach on all Israel.”
3 Then the elders of Jabesh said to him, “Hold off for seven days, that we may send messengers to all the territory of Israel. And then, if there is no one to1 save us, we will come out to you.”
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.
