1 Samuel 11:9-11

Legacy Standard Bible

⁹ And they said to the messengers who had come, “Thus you shall say to the men of Jabesh-gilead, ‘Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you will have salvation.’” So the messengers went and told the men of Jabesh; and they were glad. ¹⁰ Then the men of Jabesh said, “^(A)Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you may do to us whatever seems good in your eyes.” ¹¹ Then the next morning Saul put the people ^(B)in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp at the morning watch and struck down the Ammonites until the heat of the day. Those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.
