Saul’s wars

47 Saul secured his kingship over Israel. He fought against his enemies on every side: against Moab, the Ammonites, Edom, the king of Zobah,[a] and the Philistines. Wherever he turned, he was victorious.[b] 48 He acted heroically, defeating the Amalekites and rescuing Israel from the power of any who had plundered them.

49 Saul’s sons were Jonathan, Ishvi, and Malchishua. The names of his two daughters were Merab, the oldest, and Michal, the younger daughter.
