1Sam 13:2 Saul chose him three thousand men of Israel; whereof two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in mount Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent every man to his tent.

1Sam 13:3 And Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear.

wəḵāl-wəḵāl-yiśərā’ēl yiśərā’ēl šāmə‘û šāmə‘û lē’mōr lē’mōr hikkāh hikkāh šā’ûl šā’ûl ’eṯ-’eṯ-nəṣîḇ nəṣîḇ pəlišətîm pəlišətîm yiśərā’ēl wəg̱am-bappəlišətîm niḇə’aš yiśərā’ēl wayyiṣṣā‘ăqû bappəlišətîm hā‘ām ’aḥărê wayyiṣṣā‘ăqû hā‘ām šā’ûl ’aḥărê haggiləgāl šā’ûl haggiləgāl

1Sam 13:4 And all Israel heard say that Saul had smitten a garrison of the Philistines, and that Israel also was had in abomination with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.

ûp̱əlišətîm ne’esəp̱û ləhillāḥēm ‘im-yiśərā’ēl šəlōšîm ’elep̱ reḵeḇ wəšēšeṯ ’ălāp̱îm pārāšîm wə‘ām kaḥôl ’ăšer ‘al-śəp̱aṯ-hayyām lārōḇ wayya‘ălû wayyaḥănû ḇəmiḵəmāś qiḏəmaṯ bêṯ ’āwen

1Sam 13:5 And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea shore in multitude: and they came up, and pitched in Michmash, eastward from Bethaven.

wə’îš yiśərā’ēl rā’û kî ṣar-lô kî niggaś hā‘ām wayyiṯəḥabbə’û hā‘ām bammə‘ārôṯ ûḇaḥăwāḥîm ûḇassəlā‘îm ûḇaṣṣəriḥîm ûḇabbōrôṯ

1Sam 13:6 When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, (for the people were distressed,) then the people did hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.

wə‘iḇərîm ‘āḇərû ’eṯ-hayyarədēn ’ereṣ gāḏ wəg̱ilə‘āḏ wəšā’ûl ‘ôḏennû ḇaggiləgāl wəḵāl-hā‘ām ḥārəḏû ’aḥărāyw

1Sam 13:7 And some of the Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. As for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.

wayyôḥel šiḇə‘aṯ yāmîm lammô‘ēḏ ’ăšer šəmû’ēl wəlō’-ḇā’ šəmû’ēl haggiləgāl wayyāp̱eṣ hā‘ām mē‘ālāyw

1Sam 13:8 And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.

wayyō’mer šā’ûl haggišû ’ēlay hā‘ōlāh wəhaššəlāmîm wayya‘al hā‘ōlāh

1Sam 13:9 And Saul said, Bring hither a burnt offering to me, and peace offerings. And he offered the burnt offering.

wayəhî kəḵallōṯô ləha‘ălôṯ hā‘ōlāh wəhinnēh šəmû’ēl bā’ wayyēṣē’ šā’ûl liqərā’ṯô ləḇārăḵô

1Sam 13:10 And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him.

wayyō’mer šəmû’ēl meh ‘āśîṯā wayyō’mer šā’ûl kî-rā’îṯî ḵî-nāp̱aṣ hā‘ām mē‘ālay wə’attāh lō’-ḇā’ṯā ləmô‘ēḏ hayyāmîm ûp̱əlišətîm ne’ĕsāp̱îm miḵəmāś

1Sam 13:11 And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that thou camest not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;

wā’ōmar ‘attāh yērəḏû p̱əlišətîm ’ēlay haggiləgāl ûp̱ənê yəhwāh lō’ ḥillîṯî wā’eṯə’appaq wā’a‘ăleh hā‘ōlāh

1Sam 13:12 Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the LORD: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering.

wayyō’mer šəmû’ēl ’el-šā’ûl nisəkālətā lō’ šāmarətā ’eṯ-miṣəwaṯ yəhwāh ’ĕlōheyḵā ’ăšer ṣiwwāḵ kî ‘attāh hēḵîn yəhwāh ’eṯ-maməlaḵətəḵā ’el-yiśərā’ēl ‘aḏ-‘ôlām

1Sam 13:13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the LORD thy God, which he commanded thee: for now would the LORD have established thy kingdom upon Israel for ever.

wə‘attāh maməlaḵətəḵā lō’-ṯāqûm biqqēš yəhwāh lô ’îš kiləḇāḇô wayəṣawwēhû yəhwāh lənāg̱îḏ ‘al-‘ammô kî lō’ šāmarətā ’ēṯ ’ăšer-ṣiwwəḵā yəhwāh

1Sam 13:14 But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the LORD hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the LORD hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the LORD commanded thee.

wayyāqām šəmû’ēl wayya‘al min-haggiləgāl giḇə‘aṯ binəyāmin wayyip̱əqōḏ šā’ûl ’eṯ-hā‘ām hanniməṣə’îm ‘immô kəšēš mē’ôṯ ’îš

1Sam 13:15 And Samuel arose, and gat him up from Gilgal unto Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were present with him, about six hundred men.

wəšā’ûl wəyônāṯān bənô wəhā‘ām hanniməṣā’ ‘immām yōšəḇîm bəg̱eḇa‘ binəyāmin ûp̱əlišətîm ḥānû ḇəmiḵəmāś

1Sam 13:16 And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were present with them, abode in Gibeah of Benjamin: but the Philistines encamped in Michmash.

wayyēṣē’ hammašəḥîṯ mimmaḥănēh p̱əlišətîm šəlōšāh rā’šîm hārō’š ’eḥāḏ yip̱əneh ’el-dereḵ ‘āp̱ərāh ’el-’ereṣ šû‘āl

1Sam 13:17 And the spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned unto the way that leadeth to Ophrah, unto the land of Shual:

wəhārō’š ’eḥāḏ yip̱əneh dereḵ bêṯ ḥōrôn wəhārō’š ’eḥāḏ yip̱əneh dereḵ haggəḇûl hannišəqāp̱ ‘al-gê haṣṣəḇō‘îm hammiḏəbārāh

1Sam 13:18 And another company turned the way to Bethhoron: and another company turned to the way of the border that looketh to the valley of Zeboim toward the wilderness.

wəḥārāš wəḥārāš lō’ lō’ yimmāṣē’ yimmāṣē’ bəḵōl bəḵōl ’ereṣ ’ereṣ yiśərā’ēl yiśərā’ēl kî-’āmərû ’āmərû p̱əlišətîm pen p̱əlišətîm ya‘ăśû pen hā‘iḇərîm ya‘ăśû ḥereḇ hā‘iḇərîm ḥereḇ ’ô ’ô ḥănîṯ ḥănîṯ

1Sam 13:19 Now there was no smith found throughout all the land of Israel: for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make them swords or spears:

wayyērəḏû ḵāl-yiśərā’ēl happəlišətîm liləṭôš ’îš ’eṯ-maḥărašətô wə’eṯ-’ēṯô wə’eṯ-qarədummô wə’ēṯ maḥărēšāṯô

1Sam 13:20 But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his share, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock.

wəhāyəṯāh happəṣîrāh p̱îm lammaḥărēšōṯ wəlā’ēṯîm wəlišəlōš qilləšôn ûləhaqqarədummîm ûləhaṣṣîḇ haddārəḇān

1Sam 13:21 Yet they had a file for the mattocks, and for the coulters, and for the forks, and for the axes, and to sharpen the goads.

wəhāyāh bəyôm miləḥemeṯ wəlō’ niməṣā’ ḥereḇ waḥănîṯ bəyaḏ kāl-hā‘ām ’ăšer ’eṯ-šā’ûl wə’eṯ-yônāṯān wattimmāṣē’ ləšā’ûl ûləyônāṯān bənô

1Sam 13:22 So it came to pass in the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan: but with Saul and with Jonathan his son was there found.

wayyēṣē’ maṣṣaḇ pəlišətîm ’el-ma‘ăḇar miḵəmāś

1Sam 13:23 And the garrison of the Philistines went out to the passage of Michmash.
