1 Samuel 14:37-41

37And SaulH7586 askedH7592 counsel of GodH430, Shall I goH3381 downH3381 afterH310 the PhilistinesH6430? wilt thou deliverH5414 them intoH3027 the handH3027 of IsraelH3478? But he answeredH6030 him notH3808 that dayH3117.

38And SaulH7586 saidH559, DrawH5066 nigh hither, allH3605 ye chiefsH6438 of the peopleH5971: and knowH3045 and seeH7200 wherein this sinH2403 hath been this dayH3117.

39For, as the LORDH3068 liveth, which saveth IsraelH3478, thoughH3588 it be in JonathanH3129 my sonH1121, he shall surelyH3588 dieH4191. But there was notH369 a manH1121 among allH3605 the peopleH5971 that answeredH6030 him.

40Then saidH559 he unto allH3605 IsraelH3478, Be ye on one sideH5676, and I and JonathanH3129 my sonH1121 will be on the otherH259 sideH5676. And the peopleH5971 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, DoH6213 whatH2896 seemeth goodH2896 unto thee.

41Therefore SaulH7586 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Shew the right. And JonathanH3129 and SaulH7586 were takenH3920 by lot: but the peopleH5971 escapedH3318.
