1 Samuel 11:10-12
The Voice
10 So the citizens of Jabesh sent a message to Nahash.
People of Jabesh: Tomorrow we will surrender to you, and you may do whatever you wish to us.
11 The next morning Saul divided the people into three regiments; they entered the Ammonite camp that night under the cloak of darkness during the morning watch and slaughtered the soldiers until the next afternoon. The survivors were so few and so scattered you could not find two Ammonites together.
People (to Samuel): 12 Who are those people who jeered, “Is Saul going to be our king?” Where are they now? Hand them over so we can kill them!
