H7586
And Saul
H5971
and all the people
H2199
that 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
and there was a very
H1419
great
H4103
discomfiture.
21
H5680
Now the Hebrews
H6430
that were with the Philistines
H8032
as
H865
beforetime,
H5927
and that went up
H4264
with them into the camp,
H5439
from the country round about,
H3478
even they also turned to be with the Israelites
H7586
that were with Saul
H3129
and Jonathan.
22
H376
Likewise all the men
H3478
of Israel
H2244
that had hid
H2022
themselves in the hill-country
H669
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 Jehovah
H3467
saved
H3478
Israel
H3117
that day:
H4421
and the battle
H5674
passed over
H1007
by Beth-aven.
24
H376
And 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
be the man
H398
that eateth
H3899
any food
H6153
until it be evening,
H5358
and I be avenged
H341
on mine enemies.
H5971
So none of the people
H2938
tasted
H3899
food.
25
H776
And all the people
H935
came
H3293
into the forest;
H1706
and there was honey
H6440
upon
H7704
the ground.
26
H5971
And when the people
H935
were come
H3293
unto 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
heard
H1
not when his father
H7650
charged
H5971
the people
H7650
with the oath:
H7971
wherefore he put forth
H7097
the end
H4294
of the rod
H3027
that 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
H6030
Then answered
H376
one
H5971
of the people,
H559
and said,
H1
Thy father
H7650
straitly
H7650
charged
H5971
the people
H7650
with an oath,
H559
saying,
H779
Cursed
H376
be the man
H398
that eateth
H3899
food
H3117
this day.
H5971
And the people
H5774
were faint.
29
H559
Then said
H3129
Jonathan,
H1
My father
H5916
hath troubled
H776
the land:
H7200
see,
H5869
I pray you, how mine eyes
H215
have been enlightened,
H2938
because I tasted
H4592
a little
H1706
of this honey.
30
H637
How much more,
H3863
if haply
H5971
the people
H398
had eaten
H398
freely
H3117
to-day
H7998
of the spoil
H341
of their enemies
H4672
which they found?
H7235
for now hath there been no great
H4347
slaughter
H6430
among the Philistines.
31
H5221
And they smote
H6430
of the Philistines
H3117
that day
H4363
from Michmash
H357
to Aijalon.
H5971
And the people
H3966
were very
H5774
faint;
32
H5971
and the people
H5860
flew
H7998
upon the spoil,
H3947
and took
H6629
sheep,
H1241
and oxen,
H1121
and calves,
H7819
and slew
H776
them on the ground;
H5971
and the people
H398
did eat
H1818
them with the blood.
33
H5046
Then they told
H7586
Saul,
H559
saying,
H5971
Behold, the people
H2398
sin
H3068
against Jehovah,
H398
in that they eat
H1818
with the blood.
H559
And he said,
H898
ye have dealt treacherously:
H1556
roll
H1419
a great
H68
stone
H3117
unto me this day.
34
H7586
And Saul
H559
said,
H6327
Disperse
H5971
yourselves among the people,
H559
and say
H5066
unto them, Bring me hither
H376
every man
H7794
his ox,
H376
and every man
H7716
his sheep,
H7819
and slay
H398
them here, and eat;
H2398
and sin
H3068
not against Jehovah
H398
in eating
H1818
with the blood.
H5971
And all the people
H5066
brought
H376
every man
H7794
his ox
H3027
with him
H3915
that night,
H7819
and slew them there.
35
H7586
And Saul
H1129
built
H4196
an altar
H3068
unto Jehovah:
H2490
the same was the first
H4196
altar
H1129
that he built
H3068
unto Jehovah.
36
H7586
And 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. And they said,
H6213
Do
H5869
whatsoever seemeth
H2896
good
H559
unto thee. Then said
H3548
the priest,
H7126
Let us draw near
H1988
hither
H430
unto God.
37
H7586
And Saul
H7592
asked
H430
counsel of God,
H3381
Shall I go down
H310
after
H6430
the Philistines?
H5414
wilt thou deliver
H3027
them into the hand
H3478
of Israel?
H6030
But he answered
H3117
him not that day.
38
H7586
And Saul
H559
said,
H5066
Draw nigh
H1988
hither,
H6438
all ye chiefs
H5971
of the people;
H3045
and know
H7200
and see
H4100
wherein
H2403
this sin
H3117
hath been this day.
39
H3068
For, as Jehovah
H2416
liveth,
H3467
who saveth
H3478
Israel,
H3426
though it be
H3129
in Jonathan
H1121
my son,
H4191
he shall surely
H4191
die.
H5971
But there was not a man among all the people
H6030
that answered him.
40
H559
Then said
H3478
he unto all Israel,
H259
Be ye on one
H5676
side,
H3129
and I and Jonathan
H1121
my son
H259
will be on the other
H5676
side.
H5971
And the people
H559
said
H7586
unto Saul,
H6213
Do
H5869
what seemeth
H2896
good unto thee.
41
H7586
Therefore Saul
H559
said
H3068
unto Jehovah,
H430
the God
H3478
of Israel,
H3051
Show
H8549
the right.
H3129
And Jonathan
H7586
and Saul
H3920
were taken
H5971
by lot; but the people
H3318
escaped.
42
H7586
And Saul
H559
said,
H5307
Cast
H3129
lots between me and Jonathan
H1121
my son.
H3129
And Jonathan
H3920
was taken.
43
H7586
Then Saul
H559
said
H3129
to Jonathan,
H5046
Tell
H6213
me what thou hast done.
H3129
And Jonathan
H5046
told
H559
him, and said,
H2938
I did certainly
H2938
taste
H4592
a little
H1706
honey
H7097
with the end
H4294
of the rod
H3027
that was in my hand;
H2009
and, lo,
H4191
I must die.
44
H7586
And Saul
H559
said,
H430
God
H6213
do so
H3254
and more also;
H4191
for thou shalt surely
H4191
die,
H3129
Jonathan.
45
H5971
And the people
H559
said
H7586
unto Saul,
H3129
Shall Jonathan
H4191
die,
H6213
who hath wrought
H1419
this great
H3444
salvation
H3478
in Israel?
H2486
Far
H3068
from it: as Jehovah
H2416
liveth,
H8185
there shall not one hair
H7218
of his head
H5307
fall
H776
to the ground;
H6213
for he hath wrought
H430
with God
H3117
this day.
H5971
So the people
H6299
rescued
H3129
Jonathan,
H4191
that he died not.
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 whithersoever he turned
H7561
himself, he put them to the worse.
48
H6213
And he did
H2428
valiantly,
H5221
and smote
H6002
the Amalekites,
H5337
and delivered
H3478
Israel
H3027
out of the hands
H8154
of them that despoiled them.
49
H1121
Now the sons
H7586
of Saul
H3129
were Jonathan,
H3440
and Ishvi,
H4444
and Malchi-shua;
H8034
and the names
H8147
of his two
H1323
daughters
H8034
were these: the name
H1067
of the first-born
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
And the name
H8269
of the captain
H6635
of his host
H74
was Abner
H1121
the son
H5369
of Ner,
H7586
Saul's
H1730
uncle.
