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.
