1 Samuel 11:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ The men of Jabesh said, “Tomorrow we will come out to you and surrender.^[a] Then you can do whatever you want to us.”

¹¹ The next day Saul separated the people into three companies. They came into the camp during the morning watch, and struck down the Ammonites until the heat of the day. Those who survived were scattered so that no two of them remained together.

¹² The people told Samuel, “Who said, ‘Will Saul reign over us?’ Bring them to us^[b] and we will put them to death!”
