1st Samuel Chapter 13 - King James Strong Number Version

1: Saul <H7586> reigned <H4427> one year; <H1121> <H8141> and when he had reigned <H4427> two <H8147> years <H8141> over Israel, <H3478>
2: Saul <H7586> chose <H0977> him three <H7969> thousand <H0505> [men] of Israel; <H3478> [whereof] two thousand <H0505> were with Saul <H7586> in Michmash <H4363> and in mount <H2022> Bethel, <H1008> and a thousand <H0505> were with Jonathan <H3129> in Gibeah <H1390> of Benjamin: <H1144> and the rest <H3499> of the people <H5971> he sent <H7971> every man <H0376> to his tent. <H0168>
3: And Jonathan <H3129> smote <H5221> the garrison <H5333> of the Philistines <H6430> that [was] in Geba, <H1387> and the Philistines <H6430> heard <H8085> [of it]. And Saul <H7586> blew <H8628> the trumpet <H7782> throughout all the land, <H0776> saying, <H0559> Let the Hebrews <H5680> hear. <H8085>
4: And all Israel <H3478> heard <H8085> say <H0559> [that] Saul <H7586> had smitten <H5221> a garrison <H5333> of the Philistines, <H6430> and [that] Israel <H3478> also was had in abomination <H0887> with the Philistines. <H6430> And the people <H5971> were called together <H6817> after <H0310> Saul <H7586> to Gilgal. <H1537>
5: And the Philistines <H6430> gathered <H0622> themselves together to fight <H3898> with Israel, <H3478> thirty <H7970> thousand <H0505> chariots, <H7393> and six <H8337> thousand <H0505> horsemen, <H6571> and people <H5971> as the sand <H2344> which [is] on the sea <H3220> shore <H8193> in multitude: <H7230> and they came up, <H5927> and pitched <H2583> in Michmash, <H4363> eastward <H6926> from Bethaven. <H1007>
6: When the men <H0376> of Israel <H3478> saw <H7200> that they were in a strait, <H6887> (for the people <H5971> were distressed,) <H5065> then the people <H5971> did hide <H2244> themselves in caves, <H4631> and in thickets, <H2337> and in rocks, <H5553> and in high places, <H6877> and in pits. <H0953>
7: And [some of] the Hebrews <H5680> went over <H5674> Jordan <H3383> to the land <H0776> of Gad <H1410> and Gilead. <H1568> As for Saul, <H7586> he [was] yet in Gilgal, <H1537> and all the people <H5971> followed <H0310> him trembling. <H2729>
8: And he tarried <H3176> seven <H7651> days, <H3117> according to the set time <H4150> that Samuel <H8050> [had appointed]: but Samuel <H8050> came <H0935> not to Gilgal; <H1537> and the people <H5971> were scattered <H6327> from him.
9: And Saul <H7586> said, <H0559> Bring hither <H5066> a burnt offering <H5930> to me, and peace offerings. <H8002> And he offered <H5927> the burnt offering. <H5930>
10: And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end <H3615> of offering <H5927> the burnt offering, <H5930> behold, Samuel <H8050> came; <H0935> and Saul <H7586> went out <H3318> to meet <H7125> him, that he might salute <H1288> him.
11: And Samuel <H8050> said, <H0559> What hast thou done? <H6213> And Saul <H7586> said, <H0559> Because I saw <H7200> that the people <H5971> were scattered <H5310> from me, and [that] thou camest <H0935> not within the days <H3117> appointed, <H4150> and [that] the Philistines <H6430> gathered <H0622> themselves together at Michmash; <H4363>
12: Therefore said <H0559> I, The Philistines <H6430> will come down <H3381> now upon me to Gilgal, <H1537> and I have not made supplication <H2470> unto <H6440> the LORD: <H3068> I forced <H0662> myself therefore, and offered <H5927> a burnt offering. <H5930>
13: And Samuel <H8050> said <H0559> to Saul, <H7586> Thou hast done foolishly: <H5528> thou hast not kept <H8104> the commandment <H4687> of the LORD <H3068> thy God, <H0430> which he commanded <H6680> thee: for now would the LORD <H3068> have established <H3559> thy kingdom <H4467> upon Israel <H3478> for <H5704> ever. <H5769>
14: But now thy kingdom <H4467> shall not continue: <H6965> the LORD <H3068> hath sought <H1245> him a man <H0376> after his own heart, <H3824> and the LORD <H3068> hath commanded <H6680> him [to be] captain <H5057> over his people, <H5971> because thou hast not kept <H8104> [that] which the LORD <H3068> commanded <H6680> thee.
15: And Samuel <H8050> arose, <H6965> and gat him up <H5927> from Gilgal <H1537> unto Gibeah <H1390> of Benjamin. <H1144> And Saul <H7586> numbered <H6485> the people <H5971> [that were] present <H4672> with him, about six <H8337> hundred <H3967> men. <H0376>
16: And Saul, <H7586> and Jonathan <H3129> his son, <H1121> and the people <H5971> [that were] present <H4672> with them, abode <H3427> in Gibeah <H1387> of Benjamin: <H1144> but the Philistines <H6430> encamped <H2583> in Michmash. <H4363>
17: And the spoilers <H7843> came out <H3318> of the camp <H4264> of the Philistines <H6430> in three <H7969> companies: <H7218> one <H0259> company <H7218> turned <H6437> unto the way <H1870> [that leadeth to] Ophrah, <H6084> unto the land <H0776> of Shual: <H7777>
18: And another <H0259> company <H7218> turned <H6437> the way <H1870> [to] Bethhoron: <H1032> and another <H0259> company <H7218> turned <H6437> [to] the way <H1870> of the border <H1366> that looketh <H8259> to the valley <H1516> of Zeboim <H6650> toward the wilderness. <H4057>
19: Now there was no smith <H2796> found <H4672> throughout all the land <H0776> of Israel: <H3478> for the Philistines <H6430> said, <H0559> Lest the Hebrews <H5680> make <H6213> [them] swords <H2719> or spears: <H2595>
20: But all the Israelites <H3478> went down <H3381> to the Philistines, <H6430> to sharpen <H3913> every man <H0376> his share, <H4282> and his coulter, <H0855> and his axe, <H7134> and his mattock. <H4281>
21: Yet they had a file <H6477> <H6310> for the mattocks, <H4281> and for the coulters, <H0855> and for the forks, <H7969> <H7053> and for the axes, <H7134> and to sharpen <H5324> the goads. <H1861>
22: So it came to pass in the day <H3117> of battle, <H4421> that there was neither sword <H2719> nor spear <H2595> found <H4672> in the hand <H3027> of any of the people <H5971> that [were] with Saul <H7586> and Jonathan: <H3129> but with Saul <H7586> and with Jonathan <H3129> his son <H1121> was there found. <H4672>
23: And the garrison <H4673> of the Philistines <H6430> went out <H3318> to the passage <H4569> of Michmash. <H4363>
