1 Samuel 13:6-8

Revised Geneva Translation

⁶ And when the men of Israel saw that they were in distress (for the people were oppressed), 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, to the land of Gad and Gilead. And Saul was still in Gilgal, and all the people, for fear followed him.

⁸ And he waited for seven days, according to the time that Samuel had appointed. But Samuel did not come to Gilgal. Therefore, the people were scattered from him.
