1 Chronicles 10:7

And when all the men of Israel that [were] in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, then they forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.

Ver. 7. And the Philistines came and dwelt in them.] But before they were well warm in these their new nests, David unroosted and dislodged them "The triumphing of the wicked is but short." Job 20:5
