1 Samuel 11:6 WBT

⁴  Then came the messengers to Gibeah of Saul, and told the tidings in the ears of the people; and all the people lifted up their voices, and wept.

⁵  And behold, Saul came after the herd out of the field; and Saul said, What [aileth] the people that they weep? And they told him the tidings of the men of Jabesh.

⁶  And the Spirit of God came upon Saul when he heard those tidings, and his anger was kindled greatly.

⁷  And he took a yoke of oxen, and hewed them in pieces, and sent [them] throughout all the borders of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, Whoever cometh not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen. And the fear of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out with one consent.

⁸  And when he numbered them in Bezek, the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
