16 And Saul and Jonathan his son, and the people that were found with them, had their abiding in Gibeah of Benjamin: but the Philistines pitched in Michmash.
17 And there came out of the host of the Philistines [a]three bands to destroy, one band turned unto the way of Ophrah unto the land of Shual,
18 And another band turned toward the way to Beth Horon, and the [b]third band turned toward the way of the coast that looketh toward the valley of Zeboim, toward the wilderness.
