17 And the force of pillagers would sally forth from the camp of the Phi·lisʹtines in three bands.+ The one band would turn to the road to Ophʹrah,+ to the land of Shuʹal,

23 Accordingly he spread a great feast for them; and they began to eat and drink, after which he sent them away and they went to their lord. And not once did the marauding bands+ of the Syrians come again into the land of Israel.
