1 Samuel 14:16-23
16And the watchmenH6822 of SaulH7586 in GibeahH1390 of BenjaminH1144 lookedH7200; and, behold, the multitudeH1995 meltedH4127 awayH4127, and they went hither and thither. 17Then saidH559 SaulH7586 unto the peopleH5971 that were with him, Number now, and seeH7200 who is goneH1980 from us. And whenH834 they had numbered, behold, JonathanH3129 and his armorbearer were not there. 18And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto AhijahH281, BringH5066 hither the arkH727 of GodH430. For the arkH727 of GodH430 wasH1961 there at that time with the children of IsraelH3478. 19And it came to pass, while SaulH7586 talked unto the priestH3548, that the tumultH1995 that wasH1961 in the campH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430 wentH1980 on and increased: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto the priestH3548, WithdrawH622 thy handH3027. 20And SaulH7586 and all the peopleH5971 that were with him were gathered togetherH2199, and cameH935 to the battleH4421: and, behold, every man’sH376 swordH2719 wasH1961 against his fellow, and there wasH1961 a veryH3966 greatH1419 discomfiture. 21Now the HebrewsH5680 that were with the PhilistinesH6430 as beforetime, and that wentH5927 up with them into the campH4264, from the country roundH5439 about, even they alsoH1571 turned to beH1961 with the Israelites that were with SaulH7586 and JonathanH3129. 22Likewise all the menH376 of IsraelH3478 that had hidH2244 themselves in the hill-country of EphraimH669, when they heardH8085 that the PhilistinesH6430 fledH5127, even they alsoH1571 followed hard after them in the battleH4421. 23So Jehovah savedH3467 IsraelH3478 that dayH3117: and the battleH4421 passedH5674 over by Beth-aven.
