Scene 1 · Intermediate

Härarna står mot varandra på var sin sida om dalen

Armies face across the valley

Filistéerna samlade sina trupper vid Soko i Juda. De slog läger i Efes-Dammim, mellan Soko och Aseka. Kung Saul och Israels män slog i sin tur läger i Terebintdalen, där de gjorde sig redo för strid. Filistéerna ställde upp sig på berget på ena sidan, israeliterna på berget på den andra. Mellan dem låg dalen.

The Philistines gathered their troops at Socoh in Judah. They camped at Ephes-dammim, between Socoh and Azekah. King Saul and the men of Israel, in turn, camped in the Valley of Elah, where they prepared for battle. The Philistines took their positions on the mountain on one side, the Israelites on the mountain on the other. The valley lay between them.
