1 Samuel 11:7 in Context — 1 Samuel 11
5 E eis que Saul que vinha do campo, atrás os bois; e disse Saul: Que tem o povo, que choram? E contaram-lhe as palavras dos homens de Jabes.
6 E o espírito de Deus arrebatou a Saul em ouvindo estas palavras, e acendeu-se em ira em grande maneira.
7 E tomando um par de bois, cortou-os em peças, e enviou-as por todos os termos de Israel por meio de mensageiros, dizendo: Qualquer um que não sair após Saul e após Samuel, assim será feito a seus bois. E caiu temor do SENHOR sobre o povo,
8 E contou-lhes em Bezeque; e foram os filhos de Israel trezentos mil, e trinta mil os homens de Judá.
9 E responderam aos mensageiros que haviam vindo: Assim direis aos de Jabes de Gileade: Amanhã em aquecendo o sol, tereis salvamento. E vieram os mensageiros, e declararam-no aos de Jabes, os quais se alegraram.
