09:013:002 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.

09:013:003 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.

09:013:004 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.

09:013:005 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.

09:013:006 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.

09:013:007 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.

09:013:008 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.

09:013:009 And Saul said, Bring hither a burnt offering to me, and peace
           offerings.  And he offered the burnt offering.

09:013:010 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.

09:013:011 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;

09:013:012 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.

09:013:013 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.
