1 Samuel 11:11-13

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹¹ On the next day, Saul split the army into three divisions. They broke into the middle of the Ammonite camp during the last watch before morning and struck them down until the heat of the day. Those who survived were so scattered that no two of them were left together.

¹² Then the people said to Samuel, “Who was it who said, ‘Shall Saul reign over us?’ Hand those men over to us, so we can put them to death!”

¹³ But Saul said, “No one shall be put to death today, because today the Lord has rescued Israel.”
