King James Version
"And when the inhabitants of Jabesh–gilead heard of that which the Philistines had done to Saul;"
— 1 Samuel 31:11, King James Version
“And when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard concerning him that which the Philistines had done to Saul, ”
“When the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard concerning him that which the Philistines had done to Saul,”
“When the residents of Jabesh Gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,”
“Now when the inhabitants of Jabes Galaad had heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,”
“And when the people of Jabesh-gilead had news of what the Philistines had done to Saul,”
“And when the inhabitants of Jabesh–gilead heard of that which the Philistines had done to Saul;”
And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
And they cut off his head, and stripped off his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it in the house of their idols, and among the people.
And they put his armour in the house of Ashtaroth: and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth–shan.
And when the inhabitants of Jabesh–gilead heard of that which the Philistines had done to Saul;
All the valiant men arose, and went all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth–shan, and came to Jabesh, and burnt them there.
And they took their bones, and buried them under a tree at Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
