glean and gather after the reapers among the
sheaves: so she came, and hath continued even from the morning until now, that she
tarried a little in the house.

glean and gather among the
sheaves after the harvesters.’ So she came
out and has continued from morning until now, except that she rested a short time in the shelter.”

glean them, and
rebuke her not.

out for her some stalks from the bundles and leave them for her to gather. Do not
rebuke her.”

gleaned in the field until even, and beat

out.” When she did so, he
shoveled six measures of barley into her
shawl. Then he went into the city.

out how things go, for he will not rest unless he has resolved the matter
today.”

anguish and grief.”

Philistine outpost at Geba, and the Philistines heard about it. So Saul
blew the ram’s horn throughout the land, saying, “Let the Hebrews hear!”
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.
And all Israel heard the news: “Saul has attacked an
outpost of the Philistines, and now Israel has become a
stench to the Philistines!” Then the people were summoned to join Saul at
Gilgal.
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.
Just as he finished offering the burnt offering, Samuel arrived, and Saul went
out to
greet him.
And Samuel arose, and
gat him up from
Gilgal unto Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were present with him, about six hundred men.
Then Samuel set
out from
Gilgal and went up to Gibeah in Benjamin. And Saul numbered the troops who were with him, about six hundred men.
And the spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned unto the way that leadeth to Ophrah, unto the land of Shual:
And raiders went
out of the
Philistine camp in three divisions. One headed toward Ophrah in the land of Shual,
And the garrison of the Philistines went
out to the passage of
Michmash.
And a garrison of the Philistines had gone
out to the pass at
Michmash.
Now it came to pass upon a day, that
Jonathan the son of Saul said unto the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over to the Philistines’ garrison, that is on the other side. But he told not his father.
One day
Jonathan son of Saul said to the young man bearing his
armor, “Come, let us cross over to the
Philistine outpost on the other side.” But
Jonathan did not tell his father.
And Saul
tarried in the
uttermost part of Gibeah under a
pomegranate tree which is in Migron: and the people that were with him were about six hundred men;
Meanwhile, Saul was staying under the
pomegranate tree in Migron on the
outskirts of Gibeah. And the troops who were with him numbered about six hundred men,
And between the passages, by which
Jonathan sought to go over unto the Philistines’ garrison, there was a sharp rock on the one side and a sharp rock on the other side: and the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
Now there were cliffs on both sides of the pass that
Jonathan intended to cross to reach the
Philistine outpost. One was named Bozez and the other Seneh.
And
Jonathan said to the young man that bare his armour, Come, and let us go over unto the garrison of these
uncircumcised: it may be that the LORD will work for us: for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few.
Jonathan said to the young man bearing his
armor, “Come, let us cross over to the
outpost of these
uncircumcised men. Perhaps the LORD will work on our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few.”
And both of them discovered themselves unto the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth
out of the holes where they had
hid themselves.
So the two of them showed themselves to the
outpost of the Philistines, who
exclaimed, “Look, the Hebrews are coming
out of the holes in which they were hiding!”
And the men of the garrison answered
Jonathan and his armourbearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will
shew you a thing. And
Jonathan said unto his armourbearer, Come up after me: for the LORD hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.
So the men of the
outpost called
out to
Jonathan and his
armor-bearer, “Come on up, and we will teach you a
lesson!” “Follow me,”
Jonathan told his
armor-bearer, “for the LORD has delivered them into the hand of Israel.”
And there was
trembling in the host, in the field, and among all the people: the garrison, and the spoilers, they also
trembled, and the earth
quaked: so it was a very great
trembling.
Then terror struck the Philistines in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. Even those in the
outposts and
raiding parties
trembled. Indeed, the earth
quaked and
panic spread from God.
