For, as the LORD H3068 lives, H2416 which saves H3467 Israel, H3478 though H3588 H518 it be in Jonathan H3129 my son, H1121 he shall surely H3588 die. H4191 But there was not a man among all H3605 the people H5971 that answered H6030 him.

Therefore Saul H7586 said H559 to the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 Give H3051 a perfect H8549 lot. And Saul H7586 and Jonathan H3129 were taken: H3920 but the people H5971 escaped. H3318

Then Saul H7586 said H559 to Jonathan, H3129 Tell H5046 me what H4100 you have done. H6213 And Jonathan H3129 told H5046 him, and said, H559 I did but taste H2938 a little H4592 honey H1706 with the end H7097 of the rod H4294 that was in my hand, H3027 and, see, H2114 I must die. H4191

And the people H5971 said H559 to Saul, H7586 Shall Jonathan H3129 die, H4191 who H834 has worked H6213 this H2088 great H1419 salvation H3444 in Israel? H3478 God forbid: H2486 as the LORD H3068 lives, H2416 there shall not one hair H8185 of his head H7218 fall H5307 to the ground; H776 for he has worked H6213 with God H430 this H2088 day. H3117 So the people H5971 rescued H6299 Jonathan, H3129 that he died H4191 not.

Saul H7586 chose H977 him three H7969 thousand H505 men of Israel; H3478 whereof two thousand H505 were with Saul H7586 in Michmash H4363 and in mount H2022 Bethel, H1008 and a thousand H505 were with Jonathan H3129 in Gibeah H1390 of Benjamin: H1144 and the rest H3499 of the people H5971 he sent H7971 every man H376 to his tent. H168

So it came H1961 to pass in the day H3117 of battle, H4421 that there was neither H3808 sword H2719 nor spear H2595 found H4672 in the hand H3027 of any H3605 of the people H5971 that were with Saul H7586 and Jonathan: H3129 but with Saul H7586 and with Jonathan H3129 his son H1121 was there found. H4672

And it came H1961 to pass, when he had made an end H3615 of speaking H1696 to Saul, H7586 that the soul H5315 of Jonathan H3083 was knit H7194 with the soul H5315 of David, H1732 and Jonathan H3083 loved H157 him as his own soul. H5315

Then Jonathan H3083 and David H1732 made H3772 a covenant, H1285 because he loved H160 him as his own soul. H5315

And David H1732 said H559 to him, How H4100 went H1961 the matter? H1697 I pray H4994 you, tell H5046 me. And he answered, H559 That the people H5971 are fled H5127 from the battle, H4421 and many H7235 of the people H5971 also H1571 are fallen H5307 and dead; H4191 and Saul H7586 and Jonathan H3083 his son H1121 are dead H4191 also. H1571

And David H1732 said H559 to the young H5288 man that told H5046 him, How H349 know H3045 you that Saul H7586 and Jonathan H3083 his son H1121 be dead? H4191

How H349 are the mighty H1368 fallen H5307 in the middle H8432 of the battle! H4421 O Jonathan, H3083 you were slain H2491 in your high H1116 places.

I am distressed H6887 for you, my brother H251 Jonathan: H3083 very H3966 pleasant H5276 have you been to me: your love H160 to me was wonderful, H6381 passing the love H160 of women. H802

And she said H559 to her servants, H5288 Go H5674 on before H6440 me; behold, H2005 I come H935 after H310 you. But she told H5046 not her husband H376 Nabal. H5037

Then Gideon H1439 took H3947 ten H6235 men H582 of his servants, H5650 and did H6213 as the LORD H3068 had said H1696 to him: and so it was, because H834 he feared H3372 his father's H1 household, H1004 and the men H582 of the city, H5892 that he could not do H6213 it by day, H3119 that he did H6213 it by night. H3915

And the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 came H6743 mightily on him, and he rent H8156 him as he would have rent H8156 a kid, H1423 and he had nothing H3972 H369 in his hand: H3027 but he told H5046 not his father H1 or his mother H517 what H853 H834 he had done. H6213

Trust H539 you not in a friend, H7453 put you not confidence H982 in a guide: H441 keep H8104 the doors H6607 of your mouth H6310 from her that lies H7901 in your bosom. H2436
