1 Samuel 13:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 ¶ The Philistines also gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen: for the people was like the sand which is by the seaside in multitude, and came up, and pitched in Michmash Eastward from [a]Beth Aven.
6 And when the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait (for the people were in distress) the people hid themselves in caves, and in holds, and in rocks, and in towers, and in pits.
7 And some of the Hebrews went over Jordan unto the land of [b]Gad and Gilead: and Saul was yet in Gilgal, and all the people for fear followed him.
