@ Now it came to pass upon a
day
, that
Jonathan
the
son
of
Saul
said
unto the young
man
that
bare
his
armour
,
Come
, and let us go
over
to the
Philistines
garrison
, that is on the other
side
H1975. But he
told
not his
father
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:2
@ And
Saul
tarried
in the
uttermost
part of
Gibeah
under a pomegranate
tree
which is in
Migron
: and the
people
that were with him were about
six
hundred
men
;
strkjv@1Samuel:14:3
@ And
Ahiah
, the
son
of
Ahitub
,
Ichabods
Iy-
brother
, the
son
of
Phinehas
, the
son
of
Eli
, the
LORDS
priest
in
Shiloh
,
wearing
an
ephod
. And the
people
knew
not that
Jonathan
was
gone
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:4
@ And between the
passages
, by which
Jonathan
sought
to go
over
unto the
Philistines
garrison
, there was a
sharp
rock
on the one
side
, and a
sharp
rock
on the other
side
: and the
name
of the
one
was
Bozez
, and the
name
of the
other
Seneh
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:5
@ The
forefront
of the
one
was
situate
northward
over
against
Michmash
, and the
other
southward
over
against
Gibeah
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:6
@ And
Jonathan
said
to the young
man
that
bare
his
armour
,
Come
, and let us go
over
unto the
garrison
of these
uncircumcised
: it may be that the
LORD
will
work
for us: for there is no
restraint
to the
LORD
to
save
by
many
or by
few
m@.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:7
@ And his
armourbearer
said
unto him,
Do
all that is in thine
heart
:
turn
thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy
heart
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:8
@ Then
said
Jonathan
, Behold, we will pass
over
unto these
men
, and we will
discover
ourselves unto them.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:9
@ If they
say
thus unto us,
Tarry
until we
come
to you; then we will stand
still
in our place, and will not go
up
unto them.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:10
@ But if they
say
thus, Come
up
unto us; then we will go
up
: for the
LORD
hath
delivered
them into our
hand
: and this shall be a
sign
unto us.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:11
@ And
both
of them
discovered
themselves unto the
garrison
of the
Philistines
: and the
Philistines
said
, Behold, the
Hebrews
come
forth
out of the
holes
where they had
hid
themselves.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:12
@ And the
men
of the
garrison
answered
Jonathan
and his
armourbearer
, and
said
, Come
up
to us, and we will
shew
you a
thing
. And
Jonathan
said
unto his
armourbearer
, Come
up
after
me: for the
LORD
hath
delivered
them into the
hand
of
Israel
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:13
@ And
Jonathan
climbed
up
upon his
hands
and upon his
feet
, and his
armourbearer
after
him: and they
fell
before
Jonathan
; and his
armourbearer
slew
after
him.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:14
@ And that
first
slaughter
, which
Jonathan
and his
armourbearer
made
, was about
twenty
men
, within as it were an
half
acre
of
land
, which a
yoke
of oxen might plow.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:15
@ And there was
trembling
in the
host
, in the
field
, and among all the
people
: the
garrison
, and the
spoilers
, they also
trembled
, and the
earth
quaked
: so it was a very
great
trembling
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:16
@ And the
watchmen
of
Saul
in
Gibeah
of
Benjamin
looked
; and, behold, the
multitude
melted
away
, and they
went
on beating
down
one another.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:17
@ Then
said
Saul
unto the
people
that were with him,
Number
now, and
see
who is
gone
from us. And when they had
numbered
, behold,
Jonathan
and his
armourbearer
were not there.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:18
@ And
Saul
said
unto
Ahiah
, Bring
hither
the
ark
of
God
. For the
ark
of
God
was at that
time
with the
children
of
Israel
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:19
@ And it came to pass, while
Saul
talked
unto the
priest
, that the
noise
that was in the
host
of the
Philistines
went
on
and
increased
: and
Saul
said
unto the
priest
,
Withdraw
thine
hand
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:20
@ And
Saul
and all the
people
that were with him
assembled
themselves, and they
came
to the
battle
: and, behold, every
mans
sword
was against his
fellow
, and there was a
very
great
discomfiture
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:21
@ Moreover the
Hebrews
that were with the
Philistines
before
that
time
, which went
up
with them into the
camp
from the country round
about
, even they also turned to be with the
Israelites
that were with
Saul
and
Jonathan
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:22
@ Likewise all the
men
of
Israel
which had
hid
themselves in
mount
Ephraim
, when they
heard
that the
Philistines
fled
, even they also followed
hard
after
them in the
battle
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:23
@ So the
LORD
saved
Israel
that
day
: and the
battle
passed
over
unto
Bethaven
Beyth.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:24
@ And the
men
of
Israel
were
distressed
that
day
: for
Saul
had
adjured
the
people
,
saying
,
Cursed
be the
man
that
eateth
any
food
until
evening
, that I may be
avenged
on mine
enemies
. So none of the
people
tasted
any
food
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:25
@ And all they of the
land
came
to a
wood
; and there was
honey
upon
the
ground
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:26
@ And when the
people
were
come
into the
wood
, behold, the
honey
dropped
; but no man
put
his
hand
to his
mouth
: for the
people
feared
the
oath
sh@.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:27
@ But
Jonathan
heard
not when his
father
charged
the
people
with the
oath
: wherefore he put
forth
the
end
of the
rod
that was in his
hand
, and
dipped
it in an
honeycomb
H1706, and
put
his
hand
to his
mouth
; and his
eyes
were
enlightened
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:28
@ Then
answered
one
of the
people
, and
said
, Thy
father
straitly
charged
the
people
with an
oath
,
saying
,
Cursed
be the
man
that
eateth
any
food
this
day
. And the
people
were
faint
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:29
@ Then
said
Jonathan
, My
father
hath
troubled
the
land
:
see
, I pray you, how mine
eyes
have been
enlightened
, because I
tasted
a
little
of this
honey
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:30
@ How much
more
, if
haply
the
people
had
eaten
freely
to
day
of the
spoil
of their
enemies
which they
found
? for had there not been now a much
greater
slaughter
among the
Philistines
?
strkjv@1Samuel:14:31
@ And they
smote
the
Philistines
that
day
from
Michmash
to
Aijalon
: and the
people
were
very
faint
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:32
@ And the
people
flew
upon the
spoil
, and
took
sheep
, and
oxen
, and
calves
, and
slew
them on the
ground
: and the
people
did
eat
them with the
blood
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:33
@ Then they
told
Saul
,
saying
, Behold, the
people
sin
against the
LORD
, in that they
eat
with the
blood
. And he
said
, Ye have
transgressed
:
roll
a
great
stone
unto me this
day
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:34
@ And
Saul
said
,
Disperse
yourselves among the
people
, and
say
unto them, Bring me
hither
every
man
his
ox
, and every
man
his
sheep
, and
slay
them here, and
eat
; and
sin
not against the
LORD
in
eating
with the
blood
. And all the
people
brought
every
man
his
ox
with
him
that
night
, and
slew
them there.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:35
@ And
Saul
built
an
altar
unto the
LORD
: the same was the
first
altar
that he
built
unto the
LORD
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:36
@ And
Saul
said
, Let us go
down
after
the
Philistines
by
night
, and
spoil
them until the
morning
light
, and let us not
leave
a
man
of them. And they
said
,
Do
whatsoever
seemeth
good
unto thee. Then
said
the
priest
, Let us draw
near
hither
unto
God
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:37
@ And
Saul
asked
counsel of
God
, Shall I go
down
after
the
Philistines
? wilt thou
deliver
them into the
hand
of
Israel
? But he
answered
him not that
day
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:38
@ And
Saul
said
, Draw ye
near
hither
, all the
chief
of the
people
: and
know
and
see
wherein
this
sin
hath been this
day
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:39
@ For, as the
LORD
liveth
, which
saveth
Israel
, though it
be
in
Jonathan
my
son
, he shall
surely
die
. But there was not a man among all the
people
that
answered
him.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:40
@ Then
said
he unto all
Israel
, Be ye on
one
side
, and I and
Jonathan
my
son
will be on the
other
side
. And the
people
said
unto
Saul
,
Do
what
seemeth
good
unto thee.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:41
@ Therefore
Saul
said
unto the
LORD
God
of
Israel
,
Give
a
perfect
lot. And
Saul
and
Jonathan
were
taken
: but the
people
escaped
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:42
@ And
Saul
said
,
Cast
lots between me and
Jonathan
my
son
. And
Jonathan
was
taken
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:43
@ Then
Saul
said
to
Jonathan
,
Tell
me what thou hast
done
. And
Jonathan
told
him, and
said
, I did
but
taste
a
little
honey
with the
end
of the
rod
that was in mine
hand
, and,
lo
, I must
die
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:44
@ And
Saul
answered
,
God
do
so
and more
also
: for thou shalt
surely
die
,
Jonathan
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:45
@ And the
people
said
unto
Saul
, Shall
Jonathan
die
, who hath
wrought
this
great
salvation
in
Israel
? God
forbid
: as the
LORD
liveth
, there shall not one
hair
of his
head
fall
to the
ground
; for he hath
wrought
with
God
this
day
. So the
people
rescued
Jonathan
, that he
died
not.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:46
@ Then
Saul
went
up
from
following
the
Philistines
: and the
Philistines
went
to their own
place
.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:47
@ So
Saul
took
the
kingdom
over
Israel
, and
fought
against all his
enemies
on every
side
, against
Moab
, and against the
children
of
Ammon
, and against
Edom
, and against the
kings
of
Zobah
, and against the
Philistines
: and whithersoever he
turned
himself, he
vexed
them.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:48
@ And he
gathered
an
host
, and
smote
the
Amalekites
, and
delivered
Israel
out of the
hands
of them that
spoiled
them.
strkjv@1Samuel:14:49
@ Now the
sons
of
Saul
were
Jonathan

Ishui

Melchishua

two
daughters
were these; the
name

firstborn
Merab
, and the
name
of the
younger
Michal
:
strkjv@1Samuel:14:50
@ And the
name
of
Sauls
wife
was
Ahinoam

daughter

captain
of his
host
was
Abner
, the
son

uncle

Kish
was the
father

sore
war

strong
man

valiant
man

took
him unto him.
