1 Samuel 11:11-13

NSB(i) 11 The next day Saul arranged the army in three divisions. They came into the Ammonite camp during the morning hours. They continued to defeat the Ammonites until it got hot that day. The survivors were so scattered that no two of them were left together. 12 The people asked Samuel: »Who said: ‘Saul should not rule us?’ Let us have them, and we will kill them.’« 13 Saul said: »No man is to be put to death today, for today Jehovah has saved Israel.«
