1 Samuel 11:7-8 ▼

7 He took a pair of oxen and cut them up. Then he sent the pieces throughout the territory of Israel by the hand of messengers, who said, |Whoever does not go out after Saul and after Samuel should expect this to be done to his oxen!| Then the terror of the LORD fell on the people, and they went out as one army.

8 When Saul counted them at Bezek, the Israelites were 300,000 strong and the men of Judah numbered 30,000.
