1  Then Nahash⁵¹⁷⁶ the Ammonite⁵⁹⁸⁴ came up,⁵⁹²⁷ and encamped²⁵⁸³ against⁵⁹²¹ Jabesh-gilead:^{3003 1568} and all³⁶⁰⁵ the men³⁷⁶ of Jabesh³⁰⁰³ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Nahash,⁵¹⁷⁶ Make³⁷⁷² a covenant¹²⁸⁵ with us, and we will serve⁵⁶⁴⁷ thee.

2  And Nahash⁵¹⁷⁶ the Ammonite⁵⁹⁸⁴ answered^{559 413} them, On this²⁰⁶³ condition will I make³⁷⁷² a covenant with you, that I may thrust out⁵³⁶⁵ all³⁶⁰⁵ your right³²²⁵ eyes,⁵⁸⁶⁹ and lay⁷⁷⁶⁰ it for a reproach²⁷⁸¹ upon⁵⁹²¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

3  And the elders²²⁰⁵ of Jabesh³⁰⁰³ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ him, Give us seven⁷⁶⁵¹ days'³¹¹⁷ respite,⁷⁵⁰³ that we may send⁷⁹⁷¹ messengers⁴³⁹⁷ unto all³⁶⁰⁵ the coasts¹³⁶⁶ of Israel:³⁴⁷⁸ and then, if⁵¹⁸ there be no man³⁶⁹ to save³⁴⁶⁷ us, we will come out³³¹⁸ to⁴¹³ thee.

4  Then came⁹³⁵ the messengers⁴³⁹⁷ to Gibeah¹³⁹⁰ of Saul,⁷⁵⁸⁶ and told¹⁶⁹⁶ the tidings¹⁶⁹⁷ in the ears²⁴¹ of the people:⁵⁹⁷¹ and all³⁶⁰⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ lifted up^{5375 853} their voices,⁶⁹⁶³ and wept.¹⁰⁵⁸

5  And, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ came⁹³⁵ after³¹⁰ the herd¹²⁴¹ out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ the field;⁷⁷⁰⁴ and Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ said,⁵⁵⁹ What⁴¹⁰⁰ aileth the people⁵⁹⁷¹ that³⁵⁸⁸ they weep?¹⁰⁵⁸ And they told⁵⁶⁰⁸ him ⁸⁵³ the tidings¹⁶⁹⁷ of the men³⁷⁶ of Jabesh.³⁰⁰³

6  And the Spirit⁷³⁰⁷ of God⁴³⁰ came⁶⁷⁴³ upon⁵⁹²¹ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ when he heard^{8085 853} those⁴²⁸ tidings,¹⁶⁹⁷ and his anger⁶³⁹ was kindled²⁷³⁴ greatly.³⁹⁶⁶

7  And he took³⁹⁴⁷ a yoke⁶⁷⁷⁶ of oxen,¹²⁴¹ and hewed them in pieces,⁵⁴⁰⁸ and sent⁷⁹⁷¹ them throughout all³⁶⁰⁵ the coasts¹³⁶⁶ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ by the hands³⁰²⁷ of messengers,⁴³⁹⁷ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Whosoever⁸³⁴ cometh not forth^{369 3318} after³¹⁰ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ and after³¹⁰ Samuel,⁸⁰⁵⁰ so³⁵⁴¹ shall it be done⁶²¹³ unto his oxen.¹²⁴¹ And the fear⁶³⁴³ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ fell⁵³⁰⁷ on⁵⁹²¹ the people,⁵⁹⁷¹ and they came out³³¹⁸ with one²⁵⁹ consent.³⁷⁶

8  And when he numbered⁶⁴⁸⁵ them in Bezek,⁹⁶⁶ the children¹¹²¹ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ were¹⁹⁶¹ three⁷⁹⁶⁹ hundred³⁹⁶⁷ thousand,⁵⁰⁵ and the men³⁷⁶ of Judah³⁰⁶³ thirty⁷⁹⁷⁰ thousand.⁵⁰⁵

9  And they said⁵⁵⁹ unto the messengers⁴³⁹⁷ that came,⁹³⁵ Thus³⁵⁴¹ shall ye say⁵⁵⁹ unto the men³⁷⁶ of Jabesh-gilead,^{3003 1568} Tomorrow,⁴²⁷⁹ by that time the sun⁸¹²¹ be hot,²⁵²⁷ ye shall have¹⁹⁶¹ help.⁸⁶⁶⁸ And the messengers⁴³⁹⁷ came⁹³⁵ and showed⁵⁰⁴⁶ it to the men³⁷⁶ of Jabesh;³⁰⁰³ and they were glad.⁸⁰⁵⁵

10  Therefore the men³⁷⁶ of Jabesh³⁰⁰³ said,⁵⁵⁹ Tomorrow⁴²⁷⁹ we will come out³³¹⁸ unto⁴¹³ you, and ye shall do⁶²¹³ with us all³⁶⁰⁵ that seemeth⁵⁸⁶⁹ good²⁸⁹⁶ unto you.

11  And it was¹⁹⁶¹ so on the morrow,^{4480 4283} that Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ put^{7760 853} the people⁵⁹⁷¹ in three⁷⁹⁶⁹ companies;⁷²¹⁸ and they came⁹³⁵ into the midst⁸⁴³² of the host⁴²⁶⁴ in the morning¹²⁴² watch,⁸²¹ and slew^{5221 853} the Ammonites⁵⁹⁸³ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ the heat²⁵²⁷ of the day:³¹¹⁷ and it came to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ that they which remained⁷⁶⁰⁴ were scattered,⁶³²⁷ so that two⁸¹⁴⁷ of them were not³⁸⁰⁸ left⁷⁶⁰⁴ together.³¹⁶²

12  And the people⁵⁹⁷¹ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Samuel,⁸⁰⁵⁰ Who⁴³¹⁰ is he that said,⁵⁵⁹ Shall Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ reign⁴⁴²⁷ over⁵⁹²¹ us? bring⁵⁴¹⁴ the men,³⁷⁶ that we may put them to death.⁴¹⁹¹

13  And Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ said,⁵⁵⁹ There shall not³⁸⁰⁸ a man³⁷⁶ be put to death⁴¹⁹¹ this²⁰⁸⁸ day:³¹¹⁷ for³⁵⁸⁸ today³¹¹⁷ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath wrought⁶²¹³ salvation⁸⁶⁶⁸ in Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

14  Then said⁵⁵⁹ Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ to⁴¹³ the people,⁵⁹⁷¹ Come,¹⁹⁸⁰ and let us go¹⁹⁸⁰ to Gilgal,¹⁵³⁷ and renew²³¹⁸ the kingdom⁴⁴¹⁰ there.⁸⁰³³

15  And all³⁶⁰⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ went¹⁹⁸⁰ to Gilgal;¹⁵³⁷ and there⁸⁰³³ they made Saul king^{4427 853 7586} before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ in Gilgal;¹⁵³⁷ and there⁸⁰³³ they sacrificed²⁰⁷⁶ sacrifices²⁰⁷⁷ of peace offerings⁸⁰⁰² before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD;³⁰⁶⁸ and there⁸⁰³³ Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ and all³⁶⁰⁵ the men³⁷⁶ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ rejoiced⁸⁰⁵⁵ greatly.³⁹⁶⁶

1 καὶ ἐγενήθη ὡς μετὰ μῆνα καὶ ἀνέβη Ναας ὁ Αμμανίτης καὶ παρεμβάλλει ἐπὶ Ιαβις Γαλααδ καὶ εἶπον πάντες οἱ ἄνδρες Ιαβις πρὸς Ναας τὸν Αμμανίτην διάθου ἡμῖν διαθήκην καὶ δουλεύσομέν σοι

2 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς Ναας ὁ Αμμανίτης ἐν ταύτῃ διαθήσομαι ὑμῖν διαθήκην ἐν τῷ ἐξορύξαι ὑμῶν πάντα ὀφθαλμὸν δεξιόν καὶ θήσομαι ὄνειδος ἐπὶ Ισραηλ

3 καὶ λέγουσιν αὐτῷ οἱ ἄνδρες Ιαβις ἄνες ἡμῖν ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας καὶ ἀποστελοῦμεν ἀγγέλους εἰς πᾶν ὅριον Ισραηλ ἐὰν μὴ ᾖ ὁ σῴζων ἡμᾶς ἐξελευσόμεθα πρὸς ὑμᾶς

4 καὶ ἔρχονται οἱ ἄγγελοι εἰς Γαβαα πρὸς Σαουλ καὶ λαλοῦσιν τοὺς λόγους εἰς τὰ ὦτα τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ ἦραν πᾶς ὁ λαὸς τὴν φωνὴν αὐτῶν καὶ ἔκλαυσαν

5 καὶ ἰδοὺ Σαουλ ἤρχετο μετὰ τὸ πρωὶ ἐξ ἀγροῦ καὶ εἶπεν Σαουλ τί ὅτι κλαίει ὁ λαός καὶ διηγοῦνται αὐτῷ τὰ ῥήματα τῶν υἱῶν Ιαβις

6 καὶ ἐφήλατο πνεῦμα κυρίου ἐπὶ Σαουλ ὡς ἤκουσεν τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα καὶ ἐθυμώθη ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς ὀργὴ αὐτοῦ σφόδρα

7 καὶ ἔλαβεν δύο βόας καὶ ἐμέλισεν αὐτὰς καὶ ἀπέστειλεν εἰς πᾶν ὅριον Ισραηλ ἐν χειρὶ ἀγγέλων λέγων ὃς οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκπορευόμενος ὀπίσω Σαουλ καὶ ὀπίσω Σαμουηλ κατὰ τάδε ποιήσουσιν τοῖς βουσὶν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπῆλθεν ἔκστασις κυρίου ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν Ισραηλ καὶ ἐβόησαν ὡς ἀνὴρ εἷς

8 καὶ ἐπισκέπτεται αὐτοὺς Αβιεζεκ ἐν Βαμα πᾶν ἄνδρα Ισραηλ ἑξακοσίας χιλιάδας καὶ ἄνδρας Ιουδα ἑβδομήκοντα χιλιάδας

9 καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς ἀγγέλοις τοῖς ἐρχομένοις τάδε ἐρεῖτε τοῖς ἀνδράσιν Ιαβις αὔριον ὑμῖν ἡ σωτηρία διαθερμάναντος τοῦ ἡλίου καὶ ἦλθον οἱ ἄγγελοι εἰς τὴν πόλιν καὶ ἀπαγγέλλουσιν τοῖς ἀνδράσιν Ιαβις καὶ εὐφράνθησαν

10 καὶ εἶπαν οἱ ἄνδρες Ιαβις πρὸς Ναας τὸν Αμμανίτην αὔριον ἐξελευσόμεθα πρὸς ὑμᾶς καὶ ποιήσετε ἡμῖν τὸ ἀγαθὸν ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν

11 καὶ ἐγενήθη μετὰ τὴν αὔριον καὶ ἔθετο Σαουλ τὸν λαὸν εἰς τρεῖς ἀρχάς καὶ εἰσπορεύονται μέσον τῆς παρεμβολῆς ἐν φυλακῇ τῇ πρωινῇ καὶ ἔτυπτον τοὺς υἱοὺς Αμμων ἕως διεθερμάνθη ἡ ἡμέρα καὶ ἐγενήθησαν οἱ ὑπολελειμμένοι διεσπάρησαν καὶ οὐχ ὑπελείφθησαν ἐν αὐτοῖς δύο κατὰ τὸ αὐτό

12 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Σαμουηλ τίς ὁ εἴπας ὅτι Σαουλ οὐ βασιλεύσει ἡμῶν παράδος τοὺς ἄνδρας καὶ θανατώσομεν αὐτούς

13 καὶ εἶπεν Σαουλ οὐκ ἀποθανεῖται οὐδεὶς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ ὅτι σήμερον κύριος ἐποίησεν σωτηρίαν ἐν Ισραηλ

14 καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουηλ πρὸς τὸν λαὸν λέγων πορευθῶμεν εἰς Γαλγαλα καὶ ἐγκαινίσωμεν ἐκεῖ τὴν βασιλείαν

15 καὶ ἐπορεύθη πᾶς ὁ λαὸς εἰς Γαλγαλα καὶ ἔχρισεν Σαμουηλ ἐκεῖ τὸν Σαουλ εἰς βασιλέα ἐνώπιον κυρίου ἐν Γαλγαλοις καὶ ἔθυσεν ἐκεῖ θυσίας καὶ εἰρηνικὰς ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ εὐφράνθη Σαμουηλ καὶ πᾶς Ισραηλ ὥστε λίαν

1 Et factum est quasi post mensem, ascendit Naas Ammonites, et pugnare cœpit adversum Jabes Galaad. Dixeruntque omnes viri Jabes ad Naas: Habeto nos fœderatos, et serviemus tibi.

2 Et respondit ad eos Naas Ammonites: In hoc feriam vobiscum fœdus, ut eruam omnium vestrum oculos dextros, ponamque vos opprobrium in universo Israël.

3 Et dixerunt ad eum seniores Jabes: Concede nobis septem dies, ut mittamus nuntios ad universos terminos Israël, et si non fuerit qui defendat nos, egrediemur ad te.

4 Venerunt ergo nuntii in Gabaa Saulis: et locuti sunt verba hæc, audiente populo: et levavit omnis populus vocem suam, et flevit.

5 Et ecce Saul veniebat, sequens boves de agro, et ait: Quid habet populus quod plorat? Et narraverunt ei verba virorum Jabes.

6 Et insilivit spiritus Domini in Saul cum audisset verba hæc, et iratus est furor ejus nimis.

7 Et assumens utrumque bovem, concidit in frustra, misitque in omnes terminos Israël per manum nuntiorum, dicens: Quicumque non exierit, et secutus fuerit Saul et Samuel, sic fiet bobus ejus. Invasit ergo timor Domini populum, et egressi sunt quasi vir unus.

8 Et recensuit eos in Bezech: fueruntque filiorum Israël trecenta millia, virorum autem Juda triginta millia.

9 Et dixerunt nuntiis qui venerant: Sic dicetis viris qui sunt in Jabes Galaad: Cras erit vobis salus, cum incaluerit sol. Venerunt ergo nuntii, et annuntiaverunt viris Jabes: qui lætati sunt.

10 Et dixerunt: Mane exibimus ad vos: et facietis nobis omne quod placuerit vobis.

11 Et factum est, cum dies crastinus venisset, constituit Saul populum in tres partes: et ingressus est media castra in vigilia matutina, et percussit Ammon usque dum incalesceret dies: reliqui autem dispersi sunt, ita ut non relinquerentur in eis duo pariter.

12 Et ait populus ad Samuelem: Quis est iste qui dixit: Saul num regnabit super nos? Date viros, et interficiemus eos.

13 Et ait Saul: Non occidetur quisquam in die hac, quia hodie fecit Dominus salutem in Israël.

14 Dixit autem Samuel ad populum: Venite, et eamus in Galgala, et innovemus ibi regnum.

15 Et perrexit omnis populus in Galgala, et fecerunt ibi regem Saul coram Domino in Galgala, et immolaverunt ibi victimas pacificas coram Domino. Et lætatus est ibi Saul, et cuncti viri Israël nimis.
