WEB_Strongs(i)
  1 H3117 Now it fell on a day, H3129 that Jonathan H1121 the son H7586 of Saul H559 said H5288 to the young man H5375 who bore H3627 his armor, H3212 "Come, H5674 and let us go over H6430 to the Philistines' H4673 garrison, H5676 that is on the other side." H5046 But he didn't tell H1 his father.
  2 H7586 Saul H3427 stayed H7097 in the uttermost H1390 part of Gibeah H7416 under the pomegranate tree H4051 which is in Migron: H5971 and the people H8337 who were with him were about six H3967 hundred H376 men;
  3 H281 and Ahijah, H1121 the son H285 of Ahitub, H350 Ichabod's H251 brother, H1121 the son H6372 of Phinehas, H1121 the son H5941 of Eli, H3548 the priest H3068 of Yahweh H7887 in Shiloh, H5375 wearing H646 an ephod. H5971 The people H3045 didn't know H3129 that Jonathan H1980 was gone.
  4 H4569 Between the passes, H3129 by which Jonathan H1245 sought H5674 to go over H6430 to the Philistines' H4673 garrison, H5553 there was a rocky H8127 crag H5676 on the one side, H5553 and a rocky H8127 crag H5676 on the other side: H8034 and the name H259 of the one H949 was Bozez, H8034 and the name H259 of the other H5573 Seneh.
  5 H259 The one H8127 crag H4690 rose up H6828 on the north H8127 in front H4363 of Michmash, H259 and the other H5045 on the south H4136 in front H1387 of Geba.
  6 H3083 Jonathan H559 said H5288 to the young man H5375 who bore H3627 his armor, H3212 "Come, H5674 and let us go over H4673 to the garrison H6189 of these uncircumcised. H3068 It may be that Yahweh H6213 will work H4622 for us; for there is no restraint H3068 on Yahweh H3467 to save H7227 by many H4592 or by few."
  7 H5375 His armor bearer H559 said H6213 to him, "Do H3824 all that is in your heart. H5186 Turn H3824 and, behold, I am with you according to your heart."
  8 H3083 Then Jonathan H559 said, H5674 "Behold, we will pass over H582 to the men, H1540 and we will reveal ourselves to them.
  9 H559 If they say H1826 thus to us, ‘Wait H5060 until we come H5975 to you!' then we will stand still H5927 in our place, and will not go up to them.
  10 H559 But if they say H5927 this, ‘Come up H5927 to us!' then we will go up; H3068 for Yahweh H5414 has delivered H3027 them into our hand. H226 This shall be the sign to us."
  11 H8147 Both H1540 of them revealed H4673 themselves to the garrison H6430 of the Philistines: H6430 and the Philistines H559 said, H5680 "Behold, the Hebrews H3318 are coming out H2356 of the holes H2244 where they had hidden themselves!"
  12 H582 The men H4675 of the garrison H6030 answered H3129 Jonathan H5375 and his armor bearer, H559 and said, H5927 "Come up H3045 to us, and we will show H1697 you something!" H3129 Jonathan H559 said H5375 to his armor bearer, H5927 "Come up H310 after H3068 me; for Yahweh H5414 has delivered H3027 them into the hand H3478 of Israel."
  13 H3129 Jonathan H5927 climbed up H3027 on his hands H7272 and on his feet, H5375 and his armor bearer H310 after H5307 him: and they fell H6440 before H3129 Jonathan; H5375 and his armor bearer H4191 killed H310 them after him.
  14 H7223 That first H4347 slaughter, H3129 which Jonathan H5375 and his armor bearer H5221 made, H6242 was about twenty H376 men, H2677 within as it were half H6776 a furrow's H4618 length in an acre H7704 of land.
  15 H2731 There was a trembling H4264 in the camp, H7704 in the field, H5971 and among all the people; H4673 the garrison, H7843 and the spoilers, H2729 they also trembled; H776 and the earth H7264 quaked: H430 so there was an exceeding great H2731 trembling.
  16 H6822 The watchmen H7586 of Saul H1390 in Gibeah H1144 of Benjamin H7200 looked; H1995 and behold, the multitude H4127 melted away, H3212 and H1986 scattered.
  17 H7586 Then Saul H559 said H5971 to the people H6485 who were with him, "Count H7200 now, and see H1980 who is missing H6485 from us." When they had counted, H3129 behold, Jonathan H5375 and his armor bearer were not there.
  18 H7586 Saul H559 said H281 to Ahijah, H727 "Bring the ark H430 of God H5066 here." H727 For the ark H430 of God H1121 was with the children H3478 of Israel H3117 at that time.
  19 H7586 It happened, while Saul H1696 talked H3548 to the priest, H1995 that the tumult H4264 that was in the camp H6430 of the Philistines H3212 went H1980 on H7227 and increased: H7586 and Saul H559 said H3548 to the priest, H622 "Withdraw H3027 your hand!"
  20 H7586 Saul H5971 and all the people H2199 who were with him were gathered H935 together, and came H4421 to the battle: H376 and behold, every man's H2719 sword H7453 was against his fellow: H3966 a very H1419 great H4103 confusion.
  21 H5680 Now the Hebrews H6430 who were with the Philistines H8032 as H865 before, H5927 and who went up H4264 with them into the camp, H5439 from all around, H3478 even they also turned to be with the Israelites H7586 who were with Saul H3129 and Jonathan.
  22 H376 Likewise all the men H3478 of Israel H2244 who had hidden H2022 themselves in the hill H669 country of Ephraim, H8085 when they heard H6430 that the Philistines H5127 fled, H1692 even they also followed hard H310 after H4421 them in the battle.
  23 H3068 So Yahweh H3467 saved H3478 Israel H3117 that day: H4421 and the battle H5674 passed over H1007 by Beth Aven.
  24 H376 The men H3478 of Israel H5065 were distressed H3117 that day; H7586 for Saul H422 had adjured H5971 the people, H559 saying, H779 "Cursed H376 is the man H398 who eats H3899 any food H6153 until it is evening, H5358 and I am avenged H341 of my enemies." H5971 So none of the people H2938 tasted H3899 food.
  25 H776 All the people H935 came H3293 into the forest; H1706 and there was honey H6440 on H7704 the ground.
  26 H5971 When the people H935 had come H3293 to the forest, H1706 behold, the honey H1982 dropped: H5381 but no man put H3027 his hand H6310 to his mouth; H5971 for the people H3372 feared H7621 the oath.
  27 H3129 But Jonathan H8085 didn't hear H1 when his father H7650 commanded H5971 the people H7650 with the oath: H7971 therefore he put forth H7097 the end H4294 of the rod H3027 who was in his hand, H2881 and dipped H3295 it in the honeycomb, H7725 and put H3027 his hand H6310 to his mouth; H5869 and his eyes H215 were enlightened.
  28 H376 Then one H5971 of the people H6030 answered, H559 and said, H1 "Your father H7650 directly H7650 commanded H5971 the people H7650 with an oath, H559 saying, H779 ‘Cursed H376 is the man H398 who eats H3899 food H3117 this day.'" H5971 The people H5774 were faint.
  29 H3129 Then Jonathan H559 said, H1 "My father H5916 has troubled H776 the land. H7200 Please look H5869 how my eyes H215 have been enlightened, H2938 because I tasted H4592 a little H1706 of this honey.
  30 H637 How much more, H3863 if perhaps H5971 the people H398 had eaten H398 freely H3117 today H7998 of the spoil H341 of their enemies H4672 which they found? H7235 For now has there been no great H4347 slaughter H6430 among the Philistines."
  31 H5221 They struck H6430 of the Philistines H3117 that day H4363 from Michmash H357 to Aijalon. H5971 The people H3966 were very H5774 faint;
  32 H5971 and the people H5860 flew H7998 on the spoil, H3947 and took H6629 sheep, H1241 and cattle, H1121 and calves, H7819 and killed H776 them on the ground; H5971 and the people H398 ate H1818 them with the blood.
  33 H5046 Then they told H7586 Saul, H559 saying, H5971 "Behold, the people H2398 are sinning H3068 against Yahweh, H398 in that they eat H1818 meat with the blood." H559 He said, H898 "You have dealt treacherously. H1556 Roll H1419 a large H68 stone H3117 to me this day!"
  34 H7586 Saul H559 said, H6327 "Disperse H5971 yourselves among the people, H559 and tell H5066 them, ‘Bring me here H376 every man H7794 his ox, H376 and every man H7716 his sheep, H7819 and kill H398 them here, and eat; H2398 and don't sin H3068 against Yahweh H398 in eating H1818 meat with the blood.'" H5971 All the people H5066 brought H376 every man H7794 his ox H3027 with him H3915 that night, H7819 and killed them there.
  35 H7586 Saul H1129 built H4196 an altar H3068 to Yahweh. H2490 This was the first H4196 altar H1129 that he built H3068 to Yahweh.
  36 H7586 Saul H559 said, H3381 "Let us go down H310 after H6430 the Philistines H3915 by night, H962 and take spoil H1242 among them until the morning H216 light, H7604 and let us not leave H376 a man H559 of them." They said, H6213 "Do H5869 whatever seems H2896 good H3548 to you." Then the priest H559 said, H7126 "Let us draw near H1988 here H430 to God."
  37 H7586 Saul H7592 asked H430 counsel of God, H3381 "Shall I go down H310 after H6430 the Philistines? H5414 Will you deliver H3027 them into the hand H3478 of Israel?" H6030 But he didn't answer H3117 him that day.
  38 H7586 Saul H559 said, H5066 "Draw near H1988 here, H6438 all you chiefs H5971 of the people; H3045 and know H7200 and see H4100 in which H2403 this sin H3117 has been this day.
  39 H3068 For, as Yahweh H2416 lives, H3467 who saves H3478 Israel, H3426 though it is H3129 in Jonathan H1121 my son, H4191 he shall surely H4191 die." H5971 But there was not a man among all the people H6030 who answered him.
  40 H559 Then he said H3478 to all Israel, H259 "You be on one H5676 side, H3129 and I and Jonathan H1121 my son H259 will be on the other H5676 side." H5971 The people H559 said H7586 to Saul, H6213 "Do H5869 what seems H2896 good to you."
  41 H7586 Therefore Saul H559 said H3068 to Yahweh, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H3051 "Show H8549 the right." H3129 Jonathan H7586 and Saul H3920 were chosen; H5971 but the people H3318 escaped.
  42 H7586 Saul H559 said, H5307 "Cast H3129 lots between me and Jonathan H1121 my son." H3129 Jonathan H3920 was selected.
  43 H7586 Then Saul H559 said H3129 to Jonathan, H5046 "Tell H6213 me what you have done!" H3129 Jonathan H5046 told H5046 him, and said, H2938 "I certainly H2938 did taste H4592 a little H1706 honey H7097 with the end H4294 of the rod H3027 that was in my hand; H2009 and behold, H4191 I must die."
  44 H7586 Saul H559 said, H430 "God H6213 do so H3254 and more also; H4191 for you shall surely H4191 die, H3129 Jonathan."
  45 H5971 The people H559 said H7586 to Saul, H3129 "Shall Jonathan H4191 die, H6213 who has worked H1419 this great H3444 salvation H3478 in Israel? H2486 Far H3068 from it! As Yahweh H2416 lives, H8185 there shall not one hair H7218 of his head H5307 fall H776 to the ground; H6213 for he has worked H430 with God H3117 this day!" H5971 So the people H6299 rescued H3129 Jonathan, H4191 that he didn't die.
  46 H7586 Then Saul H5927 went up H310 from following H6430 the Philistines; H6430 and the Philistines H1980 went H4725 to their own place.
  47 H7586 Now when Saul H3920 had taken H4410 the kingdom H3478 over Israel, H3898 he fought H341 against all his enemies H5439 on every side, H4124 against Moab, H1121 and against the children H5983 of Ammon, H123 and against Edom, H4428 and against the kings H6678 of Zobah, H6430 and against the Philistines: H6437 and wherever he turned H7561 himself, he defeated them.
  48 H6213 He did H2428 valiantly, H5221 and struck H6002 the Amalekites, H5337 and delivered H3478 Israel H3027 out of the hands H8154 of those who despoiled them.
  49 H1121 Now the sons H7586 of Saul H3129 were Jonathan, H3440 and Ishvi, H4444 and Malchishua; H8034 and the names H8147 of his two H1323 daughters H8034 were these: the name H1067 of the firstborn H4764 Merab, H8034 and the name H6996 of the younger H4324 Michal:
  50 H8034 and the name H7586 of Saul's H802 wife H293 was Ahinoam H1323 the daughter H290 of Ahimaaz. H8034 The name H8269 of the captain H6635 of his army H74 was Abner H1121 the son H5369 of Ner, H7586 Saul's H1730 uncle.
  51 H7027 Kish H1 was the father H7586 of Saul; H5369 and Ner H1 the father H74 of Abner H1121 was the son H22 of Abiel.
  52 H2389 There was severe H4421 war H6430 against the Philistines H3117 all the days H7586 of Saul: H7586 and when Saul H7200 saw H1368 any mighty H376 man, H2428 or any valiant H376 man, H622 he took him to him.
