He was walking behind his oxen. He asked,“ What’s wrong with everyone? Why are they weeping?” He was told what the men of Jabesh had said.When Saul heard their words, the Spirit of God came powerfully on him. He became very angry.He got a pair of oxen and cut them into pieces. He sent the pieces by messengers all through Israel. They announced,“ You must follow Saul and Samuel. If you don’t, this is what will happen to your oxen.” The terror of the Lord fell on the people. So all of them came together with one purpose in mind.Saul brought his army together at Bezek. There were 300,000 men from Israel and 30,000 from Judah.The messengers who had come were told,“ Go back and report to the men of Jabesh Gilead. Tell them,‘ By the hottest time of the day tomorrow, you will be rescued.’ ” The messengers went and reported it to the men of Jabesh. It made those men very happy.They said to the people of Ammon,“ Tomorrow we’ll hand ourselves over to you. Then you can do to us whatever you like.”The next day Saul separated his men into three groups. While it was still dark, they broke into the camp of the Ammonite army.

    One day Jonathan, the son of Saul, spoke to the young man carrying his armor.“ Come on,” he said.“ Let’s go over to the Philistine army camp on the other side of the pass.” But he didn’t tell his father about it.Saul was staying just outside Gibeah. He was under a pomegranate tree in Migron. He had about 600 men with him.Ahijah was one of them. He was wearing a sacred linen apron. He was a son of Ichabod’s brother Ahitub. Ahitub was the son of Eli’s son Phinehas. Eli had been the Lord’ s priest in Shiloh. No one was aware that Jonathan had left.Jonathan planned to go across the pass to reach the Philistine camp. But there was a cliff on each side of the pass. One cliff was called Bozez. The other was called Seneh.One cliff stood on the north side of the pass toward Mikmash. The other stood on the south side toward Geba.Jonathan spoke to the young man carrying his armor. He said,“ Come on. Let’s go over to the camp of those fellows who aren’t circumcised. Perhaps the Lord will help us. If he does, it won’t matter how many or how few of us there are. That won’t keep the Lord from saving us.”“ Go ahead,” the young man said.“ Do everything you have in mind. I’m with you all the way.”Jonathan said,“ Come on, then. We’ll go across the pass toward the Philistines and let them see us.Suppose they say to us,‘ Wait there until we come to you.’ Then we’ll stay where we are. We won’t go up to them.But suppose they say,‘ Come up to us.’ Then we’ll climb up. That will show us that the Lord has handed them over to us.”So Jonathan and the young man let the soldiers in the Philistine camp see them.“ Look!” said the Philistines.“ Some of the Hebrews are crawling out of the holes they were hiding in.”The men in the Philistine camp shouted to Jonathan and the young man carrying his armor. They said,“ Come on up here. We’ll teach you a thing or two.” So Jonathan said to the young man,“ Climb up after me. The Lord has handed them over to Israel.”Using his hands and feet, Jonathan climbed up. The young man was right behind him. Jonathan struck down the Philistines. The young man followed him and killed those who were still alive.In that first attack, Jonathan and the young man killed about 20 men. They did it in an area of about half an acre.Then panic struck the whole Philistine army. It struck those who were in the camp and those in the field. It struck those who were at the edge of the camp. It also struck those who were in the groups that had been sent out to attack Israel. The ground shook. It was a panic that God had sent.

  • Judges 3:15-29
    Again the Israelites cried out to the Lord. Then he provided someone to save them. The man’s name was Ehud, the son of Gera. Ehud was left- handed. He was from the tribe of Benjamin. The Israelites sent Ehud to Eglon, the king of Moab. They sent him to give the king what he required them to bring him.Ehud had made a sword that had two edges. It was about a foot and a half long. He tied it to his right leg under his clothes.Eglon, the king of Moab, was a very fat man. Ehud gave him the gift he had brought.After that, Ehud sent away those who had carried it.When he came to the place where some statues of gods stood near Gilgal, Ehud went back to Eglon. He said,“ Your Majesty, I have a secret message for you.” The king said to his attendants,“ Leave us!” And all his attendants left him.Then Ehud approached him. King Eglon was sitting alone in the upstairs room of his palace. Ehud said,“ I have a message from God for you.” So the king got up from his seat.Then Ehud reached out his left hand. He pulled out the sword tied to his right leg. He stuck it into the king’s stomach.Even the handle sank in after the blade. Eglon sagged and fell to the floor. Ehud didn’t pull out the sword. And the fat closed over it.Ehud went out to the porch. He shut the doors of the upstairs room behind him. Then he locked them.After he had gone, the servants came. They found the doors of the upstairs room locked. They said,“ Eglon must be going to the toilet in the inside room of the palace.”They waited for a long time. They waited so long they became worried. But the king still didn’t open the doors of the room. So they took a key and unlocked them. There they saw their king. He had fallen to the floor and was dead.While Eglon’s servants had been waiting, Ehud had gotten away. He passed by the statues of gods and escaped to Seirah.There in the hill country of Ephraim he blew a trumpet. Then he led the Israelites down from the hills.“ Follow me,” Ehud ordered.“ The Lord has handed your enemy Moab over to you.” So they followed him down. They took over the only places where people could go across the Jordan River to get to Moab. They didn’t let anyone go across.At that time they struck down about 10,000 men of Moab. All those men were strong and powerful. But not even one escaped.

  • 1 Samuel 17 1-1 Samuel 17 58
    The Philistines gathered their army together for war. They came to Sokoh in Judah. They set up camp at Ephes Dammim. It was between Sokoh and Azekah.Saul and the army of Israel gathered together. They camped in the Valley of Elah. They lined up their men to fight against the Philistines.The Philistine army was camped on one hill. Israel’s army was on another. The valley was between them.A mighty hero named Goliath came out of the Philistine camp. He was from Gath. He was more than nine feet tall.He had a bronze helmet on his head. He wore bronze armor that weighed 125 pounds.On his legs he wore bronze guards. He carried a bronze javelin on his back.His spear was as big as a weaver’s rod. Its iron point weighed 15 pounds. The man who carried his shield walked along in front of him.Goliath stood there and shouted to the soldiers of Israel. He said,“ Why do you come out and line up for battle? I’m a Philistine. You are servants of Saul. Choose one of your men. Have him come down and face me.If he’s able to fight and kill me, we’ll become your slaves. But if I win and kill him, you will become our slaves and serve us.”Goliath continued,“ This day I dare the soldiers of Israel to send a man down to fight against me.”Saul and the whole army of Israel heard what the Philistine said. They were terrified.David was the son of an Ephrathite whose name was Jesse. Jesse was from Bethlehem in Judah and had eight sons. When Saul was king, Jesse was already very old.Jesse’s three oldest sons had followed Saul into battle. The oldest son was Eliab. The second was Abinadab. The third was Shammah.David was the youngest. The three oldest sons followed Saul.But David went back and forth from Saul’s camp to Bethlehem. He went to Bethlehem to take care of his father’s sheep.Every morning and evening Goliath came forward and stood there. He did it for 40 days.Jesse said to his son David,“ Get at least half a bushel of grain that has been cooked. Also get ten loaves of bread. Take all of it to your brothers. Hurry to their camp.Take along these ten chunks of cheese to the commander of their military group. Find out how your brothers are doing. Bring me back some word about them.They are with Saul and all the men of Israel. They are in the Valley of Elah. They are fighting against the Philistines.”Early in the morning David left his father’s flock in the care of a shepherd. David loaded up the food and started out, just as Jesse had directed. David reached the camp as the army was going out to its battle positions. The soldiers were shouting the war cry.The Israelites and the Philistines were lining up their armies for battle. The armies were facing each other.David left what he had brought with the man who took care of the supplies. He ran to the battle lines and asked his brothers how they were.As David was talking with them, Goliath stepped forward from his line. Goliath was a mighty Philistine hero from Gath. He again dared someone to fight him, and David heard it.Whenever Israel’s army saw Goliath, all of them ran away from him. That’s because they were so afraid.The Israelites had been saying,“ Just look at how this man keeps daring Israel to fight him! The king will make the man who kills Goliath very wealthy. The king will also give his own daughter to be that man’s wife. The king won’t require anyone in the man’s family to pay any taxes in Israel.”David spoke to the men standing near him. He asked them,“ What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine? Goliath is bringing shame on Israel. What will be done for the one who removes it? This Philistine isn’t even circumcised. He dares the armies of the living God to fight him. Who does he think he is?”The men told David what Israel’s soldiers had been saying. The men told him what would be done for the man who killed Goliath.David’s oldest brother Eliab heard him speaking with the men. So Eliab became very angry with him. Eliab asked David,“ Why have you come down here? Who is taking care of those few sheep in the desert for you? I know how proud you are. I know how evil your heart is. The only reason you came down here was to watch the battle.”“ What have I done now?” said David.“ Can’t I even speak?”Then he turned away to speak to some other men. He asked them the same question he had asked before. And they gave him the same answer.Someone heard what David said and reported it to Saul. So Saul sent for David.David said to Saul,“ Don’t let anyone lose hope because of that Philistine. I’ll go out and fight him.”Saul replied,“ You aren’t able to go out there and fight that Philistine. You are too young. He’s been a warrior ever since he was a boy.”But David said to Saul,“ I’ve been taking care of my father’s sheep. Sometimes a lion or a bear would come and carry off a sheep from the flock.Then I would go after it and hit it. I would save the sheep it was carrying in its mouth. If it turned around to attack me, I would grab its hair. I would strike it down and kill it.In fact, I’ve killed both a lion and a bear. I’ll do the same thing to this Philistine. He isn’t even circumcised. He has dared the armies of the living God to fight him.The Lord saved me from the paw of the lion. He saved me from the paw of the bear. And he’ll save me from the powerful hand of this Philistine too.” Saul said to David,“ Go. And may the Lord be with you.”Then Saul dressed David in his own military clothes. He put a coat of armor on him. He put a bronze helmet on his head.David put on Saul’s sword over his clothes. He walked around for a while in all that armor because he wasn’t used to it.“ I can’t go out there in all this armor,” he said to Saul.“ I’m not used to it.” So he took it off.Then David picked up his wooden staff. He went down to a stream and chose five smooth stones. He put them in the pocket of his shepherd’s bag. Then he took his sling in his hand and approached Goliath.At that same time, the Philistine kept coming closer to David. The man carrying Goliath’s shield walked along in front of him.Goliath looked David over. He saw how young he was. He also saw how healthy and handsome he was. And he hated him.He said to David,“ Why are you coming at me with sticks? Do you think I’m only a dog?” The Philistine cursed David in the name of his gods.“ Come over here,” he said.“ I’ll feed your body to the birds and wild animals!”David said to Goliath,“ You are coming to fight against me with a sword, a spear and a javelin. But I’m coming against you in the name of the Lord who rules over all. He is the God of the armies of Israel. He’s the one you have dared to fight against.This day the Lord will give me the victory over you. I’ll strike you down. I’ll cut your head off. This day I’ll feed the bodies of the Philistine army to the birds and wild animals. Then the whole world will know there is a God in Israel.The Lord doesn’t rescue people by using a sword or a spear. And everyone here will know it. The battle belongs to the Lord. He will hand all of you over to us.”As the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly to the battle line to meet him.He reached into his bag. He took out a stone. He put it in his sling. He slung it at Goliath. The stone hit him on the forehead and sank into it. He fell to the ground on his face.So David won the fight against Goliath with a sling and a stone. He struck down the Philistine and killed him. He did it without even using a sword.David ran and stood over him. He picked up Goliath’s sword and cut off his head with it. The Philistines saw that their hero was dead. So they turned around and ran away.Then the men of Israel and Judah shouted and rushed forward. They chased the Philistines to the entrance of Gath. They chased them to the gates of Ekron. Bodies of dead Philistines were scattered all along the road to Gath and Ekron. That’s the road that leads to Shaaraim.Israel’s army returned from chasing the Philistines. They had taken everything from the Philistine camp.David picked up Goliath’s head. He brought it to Jerusalem. He put Goliath’s weapons in his own tent.Saul had been watching David as he went out to meet the Philistine. He spoke to Abner, the commander of the army. Saul said to him,“ Abner, whose son is that young man?” Abner replied,“ Your Majesty, I don’t know. And that’s just as sure as you are alive.”The king said,“ Find out whose son that young man is.”After David killed Goliath, he returned to the camp. Then Abner brought him to Saul. David was still carrying Goliath’s head.“ Young man, whose son are you?” Saul asked him. David said,“ I’m the son of Jesse from Bethlehem.”
