Now it happened ^H1961 after ^H4480 a while ^H3117 that the sons ^H1121 of Ammon ^H5983 fought ^H3898 against ^H5973 Israel ^H3478.

And Jephthah ^H3316 sent ^H7971 messengers ^H4397 to the king ^H4428 of the sons ^H1121 of Ammon ^H5983, saying ^H559, “What ^H4100 is between you and me, that you have come ^H935 to me to fight ^H3898 against my land ^H776?”

Then the men ^H376 of Ephraim ^H669 were summoned ^H6817, and they crossed ^H5674 [fn]to Zaphon ^H6829 and said ^H559 to Jephthah ^H3316, “Why ^H4069 did you cross ^H5674 over ^H5674 to fight ^H3898 against the sons ^H1121 of Ammon ^H5983, but did not ^H3808 call ^H7121 us to go ^H1980 with you? We will burn ^H8313 your house ^H1004 down on you.”

Now the Philistines ^H6430 assembled ^H622 to fight ^H3898 with Israel ^H3478, 30,000 ^H7970 H505 chariots ^H7393 and 6,000 ^H8337 H505 horsemen ^H6571 and people ^H5971 like the sand ^H2344 which ^H834 is on the seashore ^H3220 H8193 in abundance ^H7230; and they came ^H5927 up ^H5927 and camped ^H2583 in Michmash ^H4363, east ^H6926 of Beth-aven ^H1007.

Now Saul ^H7586 had taken ^H3920 the kingdom ^H4410 over ^H5921 Israel ^H3478, and he fought ^H3898 against all ^H3605 his enemies ^H340 on every ^H5439 side ^H5439, against Moab ^H4124, the sons ^H1121 of Ammon ^H5983, Edom ^H123, the kings ^H4428 of Zobah ^H6678, and the Philistines ^H6430; and wherever ^H3605 H834 he turned ^H6437, he [fn]inflicted ^H7561 punishment ^H7561.

Then Saul ^H7586 said ^H559 to David ^H1732, “Here ^H2009 is my older ^H1419 daughter ^H1323 Merab ^H4764; I will give ^H5414 her to you as a wife ^H802; only ^H389 be a man ^H1121 of valor ^H2428 for me and fight ^H3898 Yahweh’s ^H3068 battles ^H4421.” For Saul ^H7586 thought ^H559, “My hand ^H3027 shall not be against him, but let the hand ^H3027 of the Philistines ^H6430 be against him.”

Then there was war ^H4421 again ^H3254. And David ^H1732 went ^H3318 out ^H3318 and fought ^H3898 with the Philistines ^H6430 and struck ^H5221 them with a great ^H1419 slaughter ^H4347, so that they fled ^H5127 before ^H4480 H6440 him.

Then they told ^H5046 David ^H1732, saying ^H559, “Behold ^H2009, the Philistines ^H6430 are fighting ^H3898 against Keilah ^H7084 and are pillaging ^H8154 the threshing ^H1637 floors ^H1637.”

Now it happened ^H1961 in those ^H1992 days ^H3117 that the Philistines ^H6430 gathered ^H6908 their armed camps ^H4264 for war ^H6635, to fight ^H3898 against Israel ^H3478. And Achish ^H397 said ^H559 to David ^H1732, “Know ^H3045 assuredly ^H3045 that you will go ^H3318 out ^H3318 with me in the camp ^H4264, you and your men ^H376.”

Then Samuel ^H8050 said ^H559 to Saul ^H7586, “Why ^H4100 have you disturbed ^H7264 me by bringing ^H5927 me up ^H5927?” And Saul ^H7586 answered ^H6030, “I am ^H6887 greatly ^H3966 distressed ^H6887, for the Philistines ^H6430 are waging ^H3898 war ^H3898 against me, and God ^H430 has turned ^H5493 away ^H5493 from me and no ^H3808 longer ^H5750 answers ^H6030 me, either ^H1571 by the hand ^H3027 of the prophets ^H5030 or ^H1571 by dreams ^H2472; therefore I have called ^H7121 you, that you may make ^H3045 known ^H3045 to me what ^H4100 I should do ^H6213.”

Now the Philistines ^H6430 were fighting ^H3898 against Israel ^H3478, and the men ^H376 of Israel ^H3478 fled ^H5127 from before ^H6440 the Philistines ^H6430 and fell ^H5307 slain ^H2491 on Mount ^H2022 Gilboa ^H1533.

Then Joab ^H3097 fought ^H3898 against Rabbah ^H7237 of the sons ^H1121 of Ammon ^H5983 and captured ^H3920 the royal ^H4410 city ^H5892.

And the Philistines ^H6430 were at war ^H4421 again ^H5750 with Israel ^H3478, so David ^H1732 went ^H3381 down ^H3381 and his servants ^H5650 with him; and as they fought ^H3898 against ^H854 the Philistines ^H6430, David ^H1732 became ^H5888 weary ^H5888.

Then Rehoboam ^H7346 came ^H935 to Jerusalem ^H3389 and assembled ^H6950 all ^H3605 the house ^H1004 of Judah ^H3063 and the tribe ^H7626 of Benjamin ^H1144, 180,000 ^{H3967 H8084 H505} chosen ^H977 men who could wage ^H6213 war ^H4421, to fight ^H3898 against ^H5973 the house ^H1004 of Israel ^H3478 to return ^H7725 the kingdom ^H4410 to Rehoboam ^H7346 the son ^H1121 of Solomon ^H8010.

Now the rest ^H3499 of the acts ^H1697 of Jeroboam ^H3379, how ^H834 he made ^H3898 war ^H3898 and how ^H834 he reigned ^H4427, behold ^H2009, they are written ^H3789 in the Book ^H5612 of the Chronicles ^H1697 H3117 of the Kings ^H4428 of Israel ^H3478.

Now Ben-hadad ^H1130 king ^H4428 of Aram ^H758 gathered ^H6908 all ^H3605 his military ^H2428 force ^H2428, and there were thirty-two ^H7970 H8147 kings ^H4428 with him, and horses ^H5483 and chariots ^H7393. And he went ^H5927 up ^H5927 and besieged ^H6696 H5921 Samaria ^H8111 and fought ^H3898 against it.

Now the servants ^H5650 of the king ^H4428 of Aram ^H758 said ^H559 to him, “Their gods ^H430 are gods ^H430 of the mountains ^H2022, therefore ^H5921 H3651 they were stronger ^H2388 than ^H4480 we; but rather ^H199 let us fight ^H3898 against ^H854 them in the plain ^H4334, and surely ^H518 H3808 we will be stronger ^H2388 than ^H4480 they.
