18 Y Saúl dijo á Achîas: Trae el arca de Dios. Porque el arca de Dios estaba entonces con los hijos de Israel.

19 Y aconteció que estando aún hablando Saúl con el sacerdote, el alboroto que había en el campo de los Filisteos se aumentaba, é iba creciendo en gran manera. Entonces dijo Saúl al sacerdote: Detén tu mano.

20 Y juntando Saúl todo el pueblo que con él estaba, vinieron hasta [el lugar de] la batalla: y he aquí que la espada de cada uno era [vuelta] contra su compañero, y la mortandad [era] grande.

21 Y los Hebreos que habían estado con los Filisteos de tiempo antes, y habían venido con ellos de los alrededores al campo, también éstos [se volvieron] para ser con los Israelitas que estaban con Saúl y con Jonathán.
