Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name of Jehovah our God.

Through You we will push our enemies; through Your name we will trample those who rise up against us.

But You have delivered us from our enemies, and have put to shame those who hated us.

But You have cast us off and put us to shame, and You do not go forth with our armies.

It is better to trust in Jehovah than to put confidence in princes.

All the nations have surrounded me, but in the name of Jehovah I will destroy them.

And I will wait on Jehovah, who hides His face from the house of Jacob; and I will watch for Him.

And in that day you shall say, O Jehovah, I will praise You; though You were angry with me, Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.

Behold, the Mighty God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid; for YAH JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; He also has become my salvation.

i1 [To the Chief Musician. Shushaneduth. Michtam of David, to teach; when he struggled with Syrian Naharaim and with Syrian Maachah, when Joab returned and struck twelve thousand of Edom in the Valley of Salt.] i0 par O God, You have cast us off, You have broken us, You were angry; bring us back.

Is it not You, O God, who cast us off? And will You not, O God, go out with our armies?

Do you not consider what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which Jehovah has chosen, He has even cast them off? Thus they have despised My people, that they should no more be a nation before them.

then I will cast away the seed of Jacob, and David My servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will bring back their captives, and have mercy on them.

And Jehovah said to me, Say to them, Do not go up nor fight, for I am not among you; lest you be struck down before your enemies.

for Jehovah your God is He who is going before you, to engage your enemies in battle, to deliver you.

Therefore the sons of Israel were not able to stand before their enemies, but turned their backs before their enemies, because they are accursed. Neither will I be with you anymore, unless you destroy the accursed from among you.

All these kings and their land Joshua took at one time, because Jehovah the God of Israel, fought for Israel.

And when the Philistines heard the sound of the shout, they said, What is this sound of great shouting in the camp of the Hebrews? Then they understood that the ark of Jehovah had come into the camp.

And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God has come into the camp! And they said, Woe to us! For such a thing has never happened before.

So the Philistines fought, and Israel was struck down, and every man fled to his tent. There was a very great slaughter, and there fell of Israel thirty thousand foot soldiers.

And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.

Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled before the Philistines, and fell slain on Mount Gilboa.

And the battle was heavy against Saul; and the archers found him, and he was wounded by the archers.

And when his armorbearer saw that Saul had died, he also fell on his sword and died.

And when all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that they had fled and that Saul and his sons had died, they forsook their cities and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.

And they stripped him and took his head and his weapons, and sent throughout the land of the Philistines to proclaim the news to their idols and among the people.

And when all Jabesh Gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,

Thus Saul died for his unfaithfulness which he had transgressed against Jehovah, because he had not kept the Word of Jehovah, and because he asked counsel to seek after a medium.
