{"ref": "I Samuel 13-16", "heRef": "שמואל א י״ג-ט״ז", "isComplex": false, "text": [["Saul was … years old when he became king, and he reigned over Israel two years. ", "Saul picked 3,000 Israelites, of whom 2,000 were with Saul in Michmas and in the hill country of Bethel, and 1,000 with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin; the rest of the troops he sent back to their homes. ", "Jonathan struck down the Philistine prefect in Geba; and the Philistines heard about it. Saul had the ram’s horn sounded throughout the land, saying, “Let the Hebrews hear.” ", "When all Israel heard that Saul had struck down the Philistine prefect, and that Israel had incurred the wrath of the Philistines, all the people rallied to Saul at Gilgal. ", "The Philistines, in turn, gathered to attack Israel: 30,000 chariots and 6,000 riders, and troops as numerous as the sands of the seashore. They marched up and encamped at Michmas, east of Beth-aven.", " When Israel’s side saw that they were in trouble—for the troops were hard pressed—the people hid in caves, among thorns, among rocks, in tunnels, and in cisterns. ", "Some Hebrews crossed the Jordan, [to] the territory of Gad and Gilead. Saul was still at Gilgal, and the rest of the people rallied to him in alarm.", "He waited seven days, the time that Samuel [had set]. But when Samuel failed to come to Gilgal, and the people began to scatter, ", "Saul said, “Bring me the burnt offering and the sacrifice of well-being”; and he presented the burnt offering. ", "He had just finished presenting the burnt offering when Samuel arrived; and Saul went out to meet him and welcome him.", "But Samuel said, “What have you done?” Saul replied, “I saw the people leaving me and scattering; you had not come at the appointed time, and the Philistines had gathered at Michmas. ", "I thought the Philistines would march down against me at Gilgal before I had entreated GOD, so I forced myself to present the burnt offering.” ", "Samuel answered Saul, “You acted foolishly in not keeping the commandment that the ETERNAL your God laid upon you! Otherwise GOD would have established your dynasty over Israel forever. ", "But now your dynasty will not endure. GOD will seek out a man with a more willing heart, and GOD will appoint him ruler over this covenanted people, because you did not abide by what GOD had commanded you.”", "Samuel arose and went up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. Saul numbered the troops who remained with him—about 600 strong. ", "Saul and his son Jonathan, and the troops who remained with them, stayed in Geba of Benjamin, while the Philistines were encamped at Michmas. ", "The raiders came out of the Philistine camp in three columns: One column headed for the Ophrah road that leads to the district of Shual, ", "another column headed for the Beth-horon road, and the third column headed for the border road that overlooks the valley of Zeboim toward the desert.", "No smith was to be found in all the land of Israel, for the Philistines were afraid that the Hebrews would make swords or spears. ", "So all the Israelites had to go down to the Philistines to have their plowshares, their mattocks, axes, and colters sharpened. ", " The charge for sharpening was a pim for plowshares, mattocks, three-pronged forks, and axes, and for setting the goads. ", "Thus on the day of the battle, no sword or spear was to be found in the possession of any of the troops with Saul and Jonathan; only Saul and Jonathan had them.", "Now the Philistine garrison had marched out to the pass of Michmas."], ["One day, Jonathan son of Saul said to the attendant who carried his arms, “Come, let us cross over to the Philistine garrison on the other side”; but he did not tell his father. ", "Now Saul was staying on the outskirts of Gibeah, under the pomegranate tree at Migron, and the troops with him numbered about 600. ", "Ahijah son of Ahitub brother of Ichabod son of Phinehas son of Eli, the priest of GOD at Shiloh, was there bearing an ephod.—The troops did not know that Jonathan had gone. ", "At the crossing by which Jonathan sought to reach the Philistine garrison, there was a rocky crag on one side, and another rocky crag on the other, the one called Bozez and the other Seneh. ", "One crag was located on the north, near Michmas, and the other on the south, near Geba.", "Jonathan said to the attendant who carried his arms, “Come, let us cross over to the outpost of those uncircumcised fellows. Perhaps GOD will act in our behalf, for nothing prevents GOD from winning a victory by many or by few.” ", "His arms-bearer answered him, “Do whatever you like. You go first, I am with you, whatever you decide.” ", "Jonathan said, “We’ll cross over to those men and let them see us. ", "If they say to us, ‘Wait until we get to you,’ then we’ll stay where we are, and not go up to them. ", "But if they say, ‘Come up to us,’ then we will go up, for GOD is delivering them into our hands. That shall be our sign.” ", "They both showed themselves to the Philistine outpost and the Philistines said, “Look, some Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have been hiding.” ", "The men of the outpost shouted to Jonathan and his arms-bearer, “Come up to us, and we’ll teach you a lesson.” Then Jonathan said to his arms-bearer, “Follow me, for GOD will deliver them into the hands of Israel.” ", "And Jonathan clambered up on his hands and feet, his arms-bearer behind him; [the Philistines] fell before Jonathan, and his arms-bearer finished them off behind him. ", "The initial attack that Jonathan and his arms-bearer made accounted for some twenty men, within a space about half a furrow long [in] an acre of land. ", "Terror broke out among all the troops both in the camp [and] in the field; the outposts and the raiders were also terrified. The very earth quaked, and a terror from God ensued.", "Saul’s scouts in Gibeah of Benjamin saw that the multitude was scattering in all directions. ", "And Saul said to the troops with him, “Take a count and see who has left us.” They took a count and found that Jonathan and his arms-bearer were missing. ", "Thereupon Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the Ark of God here”; for the Ark of God was at the time among the Israelites. ", "But while Saul was speaking to the priest, the confusion in the Philistine camp kept increasing; and Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.” ", "Saul and the troops with him assembled and rushed into battle; they found [the Philistines] in very great confusion, every man’s sword turned against his fellow. ", "And the Hebrews who had previously sided with the Philistines, who had come up with them in the army [from] round about—they too joined the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan. ", "When all of the others on Israel’s side who were hiding in the hill country of Ephraim heard that the Philistines were fleeing, they too pursued them in battle. ", "Thus GOD brought victory to Israel that day.
The fighting passed beyond Beth-aven.", "Israel’s force was distressed that day. For Saul had laid an oath upon the troops: “Cursed be anyone who eats any food before night falls and I take revenge on my enemies.” So none of the troops ate anything. ", "Everybody came to a stack of beehives where some honey had spilled on the ground. ", "When the troops came to the beehives and found the flow of honey there, no one put his hand to his mouth, for the troops feared the oath. ", "Jonathan, however, had not heard his father adjure the troops. So he put out the stick he had with him, dipped it into the beehive of honey, and brought his hand back to his mouth; and his eyes lit up. ", "At this one of the soldiers spoke up, “Your father adjured the troops: ‘Cursed be anyone who eats anything this day.’ And so the troops are faint.” ", "Jonathan answered, “My father has brought trouble on the people. See for yourselves how my eyes lit up when I tasted that bit of honey. ", "If only the troops had eaten today of spoil captured from the enemy, the defeat of the Philistines would have been greater still!”", "They struck down the Philistines that day from Michmas to Aijalon, and the troops were famished. ", "The troops pounced on the spoil; they took the sheep and cows and calves and slaughtered them on the ground, and the troops ate with the blood. ", "When it was reported to Saul that the troops were sinning against GOD, eating with the blood, he said, “You have acted faithlessly. Roll a large stone over to me today.” ", "And Saul ordered, “Spread out among the troops and tell them that everyone must bring me his ox or his sheep and slaughter it here, and then eat. You must not sin against GOD and eat with the blood.” Every one of the troops brought his own ox with him that night and slaughtered it there. ", "Thus Saul set up an altar to GOD; it was the first altar he erected to GOD.", "Saul said, “Let us go down after the Philistines by night and plunder among them until the light of morning; and let us not leave a single survivor among them.” “Do whatever you please,” they replied. But the priest said, “Let us approach God here.” ", "So Saul inquired of God, “Shall I go down after the Philistines? Will You deliver them into the hands of Israel?” But this time [God] did not respond to him. ", "Then Saul said, “Come forward, all chief officers of the troops, and find out how this guilt was incurred today. ", "For as GOD lives who brings victory to Israel, even if it was through my son Jonathan, he shall be put to death!” Not one soldier answered him. ", "And he said to all the Israelites, “You stand on one side, and my son Jonathan and I shall stand on the other.” The troops said to Saul, “Do as you please.” ", "Saul then said to GOD, the God of Israel, “Show Thammim.” Jonathan and Saul were indicated by lot, and the troops were cleared. ", "And Saul said, “Cast the lots between my son and me”; and Jonathan was indicated.", "Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me, what have you done?” And Jonathan told him, “I only tasted a bit of honey with the tip of the stick in my hand. I am ready to die.” ", "Saul said, “Thus and more may God do: You shall be put to death, Jonathan!” ", "But the troops said to Saul, “Shall Jonathan die, after bringing this great victory to Israel? Never! As GOD lives, not a hair of his head shall fall to the ground! For he brought this day to pass with the help of God.” Thus the troops saved Jonathan and he did not die. ", "Saul broke off his pursuit of the Philistines, and the Philistines returned to their homes.", "After Saul had secured his kingship over Israel, he waged war on every side against all his enemies: against the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, the Philistines, and the kings of Zobah; and wherever he turned he routed [them]. ", "He was triumphant, defeating the Amalekites and saving Israel from those who plundered it.", "Saul’s sons were: Jonathan, Ishvi, and Malchi-shua; and the names of his two daughters were Merab, the older, and Michal, the younger. ", "The name of Saul’s wife was Ahinoam daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of his army commander was Abiner son of Saul’s uncle Ner. ", "Kish, Saul’s father, and Ner, Abner’s father, were sons of Abiel.", "There was bitter war against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and whenever Saul noticed any stalwart man or warrior, he would take him into his service."], ["Samuel said to Saul, “I am the one GOD sent to anoint you king over Israel—God’s people. Therefore, listen to GOD’s command!", "“Thus said GOD of Hosts: I am exacting the penalty for what Amalek did to Israel, for the assault he made upon them on the road, on their way up from Egypt. ", "Now go, attack Amalek, and proscribe all that belongs to him. Spare no one, but kill alike men and women, infants and sucklings, oxen and sheep, camels and donkeys!”", "Saul mustered the troops and enrolled them at Telaim: 200,000 men on foot, and 10,000 as Judah’s contingent. ", "Then Saul advanced as far as the city of Amalek and lay in wait in the wadi. ", "Saul said to the Kenites, “Come, withdraw at once from among the Amalekites, that I may not destroy you along with them; for you showed kindness to all the Israelites when they left Egypt.” So the Kenites withdrew from among the Amalekites.", "Saul destroyed Amalek from Havilah all the way to Shur, which is close to Egypt, ", "and he captured King Agag of Amalek alive. He proscribed all the people, putting them to the sword; ", "but Saul and the troops spared Agag and the best of the sheep, the oxen, the second-born, the lambs, and all else that was of value. They would not proscribe them; they proscribed only what was cheap and worthless. ", "The word of GOD then came to Samuel:", "“I regret that I made Saul king, for he has turned away from Me and has not carried out My commands.” Samuel was distressed and he entreated GOD all night long. ", "Early in the morning Samuel went to meet Saul. Samuel was told, “Saul went to Carmel, where he erected a monument for himself; then he left and went on down to Gilgal.”", "When Samuel came to Saul, Saul said to him, “Blessed are you of GOD! I have fulfilled GOD’s command.” ", "“Then what,” demanded Samuel, “is this bleating of sheep in my ears, and the lowing of oxen that I hear?” ", "Saul answered, “They were brought from the Amalekites, for the troops spared the choicest of the sheep and oxen for sacrificing to the ETERNAL your God. And we proscribed the rest.” ", "Samuel said to Saul, “Stop! Let me tell you what GOD said to me last night!” “Speak,” he replied. ", "And Samuel said, “You may look small to yourself, but you are the head of the tribes of Israel. GOD anointed you king over Israel, ", "and GOD sent you on a mission, saying, ‘Go and proscribe the sinful Amalekites; make war on them until you have exterminated them.’ ", "Why did you disobey GOD and swoop down on the spoil in defiance of GOD’s will?” ", "Saul said to Samuel, “But I did obey GOD! I performed the mission on which GOD sent me: I captured King Agag of Amalek, and I proscribed Amalek, ", "and the troops took from the spoil some sheep and oxen—the best of what had been proscribed—to sacrifice to the ETERNAL your God at Gilgal.”", "But Samuel said:
“Does GOD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
As much as in obedience to GOD’s command?
Surely, obedience is better than sacrifice,
Compliance than the fat of rams.", "For rebellion is like the sin of divination,
Defiance, like the iniquity of oracle idols.
Because you rejected GOD’s command,
[God] has rejected you as king.”
", "Saul said to Samuel, “I did wrong to transgress GOD’s command and your instructions; but I was afraid of the troops and I yielded to them. ", "Please, forgive my offense and come back with me, and I will bow low to GOD.” ", "But Samuel said to Saul, “I will not go back with you; for you have rejected GOD’s command, and GOD has rejected you as king over Israel.”", "As Samuel turned to leave, Saul seized the corner of his robe, and it tore. ", "And Samuel said to him, “GOD has this day torn the kingship over Israel away from you and has given it to another who is worthier than you. ", "Moreover, the Glory of Israel does not deceive or have a change of heart, for [God] is not human to have a change of heart.” ", "But [Saul] pleaded, “I did wrong. Please, honor me in the presence of the elders of my people and in the presence of Israel, and come back with me until I have bowed low to the ETERNAL your God.” ", "So Samuel followed Saul back, and Saul bowed low to GOD.", "Samuel said, “Bring forward to me King Agag of Amalek.” Agag approached him with faltering steps; and Agag said, “Ah, bitter death is at hand!” ", "Samuel said:
“As your sword has bereaved women,
So shall your mother be bereaved among women.”
And Samuel cut Agag down before GOD at Gilgal.", "Samuel then departed for Ramah, and Saul went up to his home at Gibeah of Saul.", "Samuel never saw Saul again to the day of his death. But Samuel grieved over Saul, because GOD regretted having made Saul king over Israel."], ["And GOD said to Samuel, “How long will you grieve over Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and set out; I am sending you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have decided on one of his sons to be king.” ", "Samuel replied, “How can I go? If Saul hears of it, he will kill me.” GOD answered, “Take a heifer with you, and say, ‘I have come to sacrifice to GOD.’ ", "Invite Jesse to the sacrificial feast, and then I will make known to you what you shall do; you shall anoint for Me the one I point out to you.” ", "Samuel did what GOD commanded. When he came to Bethlehem, the elders of the city went out in alarm to meet him and said, “Do you come on a peaceful errand?” ", "“Yes,” he replied, “I have come to sacrifice to GOD. Purify yourselves and join me in the sacrificial feast.” He also instructed Jesse and his sons to purify themselves and invited them to the sacrificial feast.", "When they arrived and he saw Eliab, he thought: “Surely GOD’s anointed stands here.” ", "But GOD said to Samuel, “Pay no attention to his appearance or his stature, for I have rejected him. For [GOD sees] not as humans see; humans see only what is visible, but GOD sees into the heart.” ", "Then Jesse called Abinadab and had him pass before Samuel; but he said, “GOD has not chosen this one either.” ", "Next Jesse presented Shammah; and again he said, “GOD has not chosen this one either.” ", "Thus Jesse presented seven of his sons before Samuel, and Samuel said to Jesse, “GOD has not chosen any of these.”", "Then Samuel asked Jesse, “Are these all the boys you have?” He replied, “There is still the youngest; he is tending the flock.” And Samuel said to Jesse, “Send someone to bring him, for we will not sit down to eat until he gets here.” ", "So they sent and brought him. He was ruddy-cheeked, bright-eyed, and handsome. And GOD said, “Rise and anoint him, for this is the one.” ", "Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers; and the spirit of GOD gripped David from that day on. Samuel then set out for Ramah.", "Now the spirit of GOD had departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from GOD began to terrify him. ", "Saul’s courtiers said to him, “An evil spirit of God is terrifying you. ", "Let our lord give the order [and] the courtiers in attendance on you will look for someone who is skilled at playing the lyre; whenever the evil spirit of God comes over you, he will play it and you will feel better.” ", "So Saul said to his courtiers, “Find me someone who can play well and bring him to me.” ", "One of the attendants spoke up, “I have observed a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite who is skilled in music; he is a stalwart fellow and a warrior, sensible in speech, and handsome in appearance—and GOD is with him.” ", "Whereupon Saul sent messengers to Jesse to say, “Send me your son David, who is with the flock.” ", "Jesse took a donkey [laden with] bread, a skin of wine, and a kid, and sent them to Saul by his son David. ", "So David came to Saul and entered his service; [Saul] took a strong liking to him and made him one of his arms-bearers.", "Saul sent word to Jesse, “Let David remain in my service, for I am pleased with him.” ", "Whenever the [evil] spirit of God came upon Saul, David would take the lyre and play it; Saul would find relief and feel better, and the evil spirit would leave him."]], "he":

Qamaz qatan is indicated by its designated Unicode character (alternatives are documented where traditions differ about its application).
The text of MAM is fully documented. The complete introduction to the edition (Hebrew) explains the types of editorial decisions that have been made and the reasons for them (English abstract).
