10 Y los de Jabes dijeron: Mañana saldremos á vosotros, para que hagáis con nosotros todo lo que bien os pareciere.

11 Y el día siguiente dispuso Saúl el pueblo en tres escuadrones, y entraron en medio del real á la vela de la mañana, é hirieron á los Ammonitas hasta que el día calentaba: y los que quedaron fueron dispersos, tal que no quedaron dos de ellos juntos.

12 El pueblo entonces dijo á Samuel: ¿Quiénes son lo que decían: Reinará Saúl sobre nosotros? Dad[nos] esos hombres, y los mataremos.

13 Y Saúl dijo: No morirá hoy ninguno, porque hoy ha obrado Jehová salud en Israel.

14 Mas Samuel dijo al pueblo: Venid, vamos á Gilgal para que renovemos allí el reino.
