1 Samuel 14:11-15

11And bothH8147 of them discoveredH1540 themselves unto the garrisonH4673 of the PhilistinesH6430: and the PhilistinesH6430 saidH559, Behold, the HebrewsH5680 come forthH3318 out of the holesH2356 where they had hidH2244 themselves.

12And the menH582 of the garrisonH4675 answeredH6030 JonathanH3129 and his armourbearerH3627H5375, and saidH559, Come upH5927 to us, and we will shewH3045 you a thingH1697. And JonathanH3129 saidH559 unto his armourbearerH3627H5375, Come upH5927 afterH310 me: for YhwhH3068 hath deliveredH5414 them into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478.

13And JonathanH3129 climbed upH5927 upon his handsH3027 and upon his feetH7272, and his armourbearerH3627H5375 afterH310 him: and they fellH5307 beforeH6440 JonathanH3129; and his armourbearerH3627H5375 slewH4191 afterH310 him.

14And that firstH7223 slaughterH4347, which JonathanH3129 and his armourbearerH3627H5375 madeH5221, was about twentyH6242 menH376, within as it were an halfH2677 acreH4618 of landH7704, which a yokeH6776 of oxen might plow.1

15And there was tremblingH2731 in the armyH4264, in the fieldH7704, and among all the peopleH5971: the garrisonH4673, and the spoilersH7843, they also trembledH2729, and the earthH776 quakedH7264: so it was a very greatH430 tremblingH2731.2
