1 Samuel 11:9-11

Revised Geneva Translation

⁹ Then they said to the messengers who came, “So say to the men of Jabesh Gilead: ‘Tomorrow by the time the Sun is hot, you shall have help.’” And the messengers came and told it to the men of Jabesh, who were glad.

¹⁰ Therefore, the men of Jabesh said, “Tomorrow we will come out to you; and you shall do with us all that pleases you.”

¹¹ And when the next day had come, Saul put the people in three bands. And they came in upon the army during the morning watch and killed the Ammonites until the heat of the day. And those who remained were scattered, so that not even two of them were left together.
