1 Samuel 11:1-5

Then Nahash
<05176>

the Ammonite
<05984>

came up
<05927> (8799)_,

and encamped
<02583> (8799)

against Jabeshgilead
<03003> <01568>_:

and all the men
<0582>

of Jabesh
<03003>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Nahash
<05176>_,

Make
<03772> (8798)

a covenant
<01285>

with us, and we will serve
<05647> (8799)

thee.

And Nahash
<05176>

the Ammonite
<05984>

answered
<0559> (8799)

them, On this
<02063>

[condition] will I make
<03772> (8799)

[a covenant] with you, that I may thrust out
<05365> (8800)

all your right
<03225>

eyes
<05869>_,

and lay
<07760> (8804)

it [for] a reproach
<02781>

upon all Israel
<03478>_.

And the elders
<02205>

of Jabesh
<03003>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Give us seven
<07651>

days
<03117>_'

respite
<07503> (8685)_,

that we may send
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

unto all the coasts
<01366>

of Israel
<03478>_:

and then, if [there be] no man to save
<03467> (8688)

us, we will come out
<03318> (8804)

to thee. {Give...: Heb. Forbear us}

Then came
<0935> (8799)

the messengers
<04397>

to Gibeah
<01390>

of Saul
<07586>_,

and told
<01696> (8762)

the tidings
<01697>

in the ears
<0241>

of the people
<05971>_:

and all the people
<05971>

lifted up
<05375> (8799)

their voices
<06963>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)_.

And, behold, Saul
<07586>

came
<0935> (8804)

after
<0310>

the herd
<01241>

out of the field
<07704>_;

and Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

What [aileth] the people
<05971>

that they weep
<01058> (8799)_?

And they told
<05608> (8762)

him the tidings
<01697>

of the men
<0582>

of Jabesh
<03003>_.
