9 They told the messengers who had come, |This is what you are to say to the men of Jabesh Gilead: 'Tomorrow, by the time the sun gets hot, you will be rescued.' | When the men of Jabesh received the message, they were overjoyed. 10 They said [to Nahash], |Tomorrow we'll surrender to you, and you may do to us whatever you think is right.| 11 The next day Saul arranged the army in three divisions. They came into the [Ammonite] camp during the morning hours and continued to defeat the Ammonites until it got hot that day. The survivors were so scattered that no two of them were left together. 1 Samuel 11:9-11, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
