10 E os de Jabes disseram: Amanhã sairemos a vós, para que façais conosco tudo o que bem vos parecer.

11 E o dia seguinte dispôs Saul o povo em três esquadrões, e entraram em meio do acampamento à vigília da manhã, e feriram aos amonitas até que o dia aquecesse; e os que restaram foram dispersos, tal que não restaram dois deles juntos.

12 O povo então disse a Samuel: Quem são o que diziam: Reinará Saul sobre nós? Dai-nos esses homens, e os mataremos.

13 E Saul disse: Não morrerá hoje ninguém, porque hoje operou o SENHOR salvação em Israel.

14 Mas Samuel disse ao povo: Vinde, vamos a Gilgal para que renovemos ali o reino.
