1 Samuel 13:5-7
New Catholic Bible
5 The Philistines were assembled to fight against Israel. They had thirty thousand chariots,[a] six thousand charioteers, and so many men that they seemed like the sand on the shore of the sea. They went up and camped outside of Michmash, to the east of Beth-haven. 6 When the men of Israel saw that they were in trouble for the people were being hard pressed, they hid themselves in caves, in thickets, among the rocks, in cellars, and in cisterns. 7 Some Hebrews even crossed over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead.
Saul was still in Gilgal, and all of the people who were following him trembled with fear. Read full chapter
