Then they came into the middle of the camp at the early morning watch^[b] and struck down the Ammonites^[c] until the heat of the day. It happened that the remainder were scattered so that no two among them remained together.^{[d] 12} Then the people said to Samuel, “Who is the one who asked, ‘Will Saul reign over us?’ Give the men to us that we may kill them.” ¹³ But Saul said, “No one will be put to death on this day, because today^[e] Yahweh has provided deliverance in Israel.”
