1 Samuel 14:36-42

36And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and plunder them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoever is good in thy sight. Then said the priest, Let us come near hither to 1God.

37And Saul inquired of 2God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou give them into the hand of Israel? But he did not answer him that day.

38And Saul said, Draw ye near hither, all the heads of the people; and know and see wherein this sin has been this day.

39For, [as] Jehovah liveth, who has saved Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall certainly die. And no one answered him among all the people.

40Then said he to all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said to Saul, Do what is good in thy sight.

41And Saul said to Jehovah the 3God of Israel, Give a perfect [testimony]! And Jonathan and Saul were taken, and the people escaped.

42And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.
