1 Samuel 13:2-4
International Standard Version
2 Saul chose for himself 3,000 men from Israel. There were 2,000 with Saul in Michmash and the hill country of Bethel, while 1,000 were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin. He had sent the rest of the people home.[a]
3 Jonathan attacked the Philistine garrison[b] in Geba, and the Philistines heard about it. Saul blew the trumpet throughout the land: “Listen, Hebrews!” 4 All Israel heard the report,[c] “Saul has attacked the Philistine garrison[d] and Israel has also become repulsive to the Philistines.” Then the people were summoned to Saul at Gilgal.
