1 Samuel 18:6

18:6 When the men ¹  arrived after David returned from striking down the Philistine, the women from all the cities of Israel came out singing and dancing to meet King Saul. They were happy as they played their tambourines and three-stringed instruments. ² 

1 Samuel 10:5

10:5 Afterward you will go to Gibeah of God, where there are Philistine officials. ³  When you enter the town, you will meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place. They will have harps, tambourines, flutes, and lyres, and they will be prophesying.

[18:6]  ¹ tn Heb “them.” The masculine plural pronoun apparently refers to the returning soldiers.

[18:6]  ² tn Heb “with tambourines, with joy, and with three-stringed instruments.”

[10:5]  ³ tn Or “sentries.” Some translate “outpost” (NIV) or “garrison” (NAB, NRSV, NLT) here (see 1 Sam 13:3). The noun is plural in the Hebrew text, but the LXX and other ancient witnesses read a singular noun here.
