1 Samuel 11:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ And they said to the messengers that came: Thus shall you say to the men of Jabes Galaad: To morrow, when the sun shall be hot, you shall have relief. The messengers therefore came, and told the men of Jabes: and they were glad.

¹⁰ And they said: In the morning we will come out to you: and you shall do what you please with us.

¹¹ And it came to pass, when the morrow was come that Saul put the people in three companies: and he came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and he slew the Ammonites until the day grew hot, and the rest were scattered, so that two of them were not left together.
