| [1]Then on a time Ionathan the sonne of Saul sayde vnto his young man that bare his harnesse: Come, & let vs go ouer to the Philistines garison that are yonder on the other syde: and he tolde not his father |
[1]Now it came to pass upon a dayH3117, that JonathanH3129 the sonH1121 of SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799] unto the young manH5288 that bareH5375[H8802] his armourH3627, ComeH3212[H8798], and let us go overH5674[H8799] to the Philistines'H6430 garrisonH4673, that is on the other sideH5676[H1975]. But he toldH5046[H8689] not his fatherH1. |
| [2]And Saul taried in the vttermost part of Gibea vnder a pomegranate tree which is in Migron: and the people that were with him were vpo a sixe hundred men |
[2]And SaulH7586 tarriedH3427[H8802] in the uttermostH7097 part of GibeahH1390 under a pomegranate treeH7416 which is in MigronH4051: and the peopleH5971 that were with him were about sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376; |
| [3]And Ahia the sonne of Ahitob, Ichabods brother, the sonne of Phinehesthe sonne of Eli, was the Lordes priest in Silo, and ware an Ephod: And the people wist not that Ionathan was gone |
[3]And AhiahH281, the sonH1121 of AhitubH285, Ichabod'sH350 brotherH251, the sonH1121 of PhinehasH6372, the sonH1121 of EliH5941, the LORD'SH3068 priestH3548 in ShilohH7887, wearingH5375[H8802] an ephodH646. And the peopleH5971 knewH3045[H8804] not that JonathanH3129 was goneH1980.[H8804] |
| [4]And in the middes of the passage by which Ionathan sought to go ouer vnto the Philistines garison, there was a sharpe rocke on the one syde, & a sharpe rocke on the other syde: the one called Bozez, and the other Sene |
[4]And between the passagesH4569, by which JonathanH3129 soughtH1245[H8765] to go overH5674[H8800] unto the Philistines'H6430 garrisonH4673, there was a sharpH8127 rockH5553 on the one sideH5676, and a sharpH8127 rockH5553 on the other sideH5676: and the nameH8034 of the oneH259 was BozezH949, and the nameH8034 of the otherH259 SenehH5573. |
| [5]The forefront of the one leaned northwarde towarde Michmas, & the other was southward toward Gibea |
[5]The forefrontH8127 of the oneH259 was situateH4690 northwardH6828 over againstH4136 MichmashH4363, and the otherH259 southwardH5045 over againstH4136 GibeahH1387. |
| [6]And Ionathan sayd to the young man that bare his harnesse: Come, and let vs go ouer vnto the garison of these vncircumcised, it may be that the Lorde will worke with vs: for it is no hardnesse with the Lord to saue either in manie or in fewe |
[6]And JonathanH3083 saidH559[H8799] to the young manH5288 that bareH5375[H8802] his armourH3627, ComeH3212[H8798], and let us go overH5674[H8799] unto the garrisonH4673 of these uncircumcisedH6189: it may be that the LORDH3068 will workH6213[H8799] for us: for there is no restraintH4622 to the LORDH3068 to saveH3467[H8687] by manyH7227 or by fewH4592. |
| [7]And his harnesse bearer said vnto him, Do all that is in thyne heart: Go where it pleaseth thee, behold I am with thee as thyne heart lusteth |
[7]And his armourbearerH5375[H8802][H3627] saidH559[H8799] unto him, DoH6213[H8798] all that is in thine heartH3824: turnH5186[H8798] thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heartH3824. |
| [8]Then sayd Ionathan: Beholde, we go ouer vnto these men, and shall shewe our selues vnto them |
[8]Then saidH559[H8799] JonathanH3083, Behold, we will pass overH5674[H8802] unto these menH582, and we will discoverH1540 ourselves unto themH8738. |
| [9]Yf they say on this wyse to vs, Tarie vntil we come to you: then we wil stand still in our place, & not go vp vnto them |
[9]If they sayH559[H8799] thus unto us, TarryH1826[H8798] until we comeH5060[H8687] to you; then we will stand stillH5975[H8804] in our place, and will not go upH5927 unto themH8799. |
| [10]But and if they say, Come vp vnto vs: then we wil go vp, for the Lorde hath deliuered them into our handes: And this shalbe a signe vnto vs |
[10]But if they sayH559[H8799] thus, Come upH5927[H8798] unto us; then we will go upH5927[H8804]: for the LORDH3068 hath deliveredH5414[H8804] them into our handH3027: and this shall be a sign unto usH226. |
| [11]And they both shewed them selues vnto the garison of the Philistines. And the Philistines sayde: See, the Hebrues come out of the holes where they had hyd them selues in |
[11]And bothH8147 of them discoveredH1540[H8735] themselves unto the garrisonH4673 of the PhilistinesH6430: and the PhilistinesH6430 saidH559[H8799], Behold, the HebrewsH5680 come forthH3318[H8802] out of the holesH2356 where they had hidH2244 themselvesH8694. |
| [12]And the men of the garison aunswered Ionathan & his harnesse bearer, & sayd: Come vp to vs, and we will shewe you a thing. And Ionathan sayde vnto his harnesse bearer: Come vp after me, for the Lorde hath deliuered them into the hande of Israel |
[12]And the menH582 of the garrisonH4675 answeredH6030[H8799] JonathanH3129 and his armourbearerH5375[H8802][H3627], and saidH559[H8799], Come upH5927[H8798] to us, and we will shewH3045[H8686] you a thingH1697. And JonathanH3129 saidH559[H8799] unto his armourbearerH5375[H8802][H3627], Come upH5927[H8798] afterH310 me: for the LORDH3068 hath deliveredH5414[H8804] them into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478. |
| [13]And Ionathan clymed vp vpon handes and feete, and his harnesse bearer after him: And they fell before Ionathan, & his harnesse bearer slue the after him |
[13]And JonathanH3129 climbed upH5927[H8799] upon his handsH3027 and upon his feetH7272, and his armourbearerH5375[H8802][H3627] afterH310 him: and they fellH5307[H8799] beforeH6440 JonathanH3129; and his armourbearerH5375[H8802][H3627] slewH4191[H8789] after himH310. |
| [14]And that first slaughter whiche Ionathan & his harnesse bearer made, was vpon a twentie men, within the compasse as it were about an halfe aker of land which two [oxen plowe. |
[14]And that firstH7223 slaughterH4347, which JonathanH3129 and his armourbearerH5375[H8802][H3627] madeH5221[H8689], was about twentyH6242 menH376, within as it were an halfH2677 acreH4618 of landH7704, which a yoke of oxen might plowH6776. |
| [15]And there was a feare in the hoast, in the field, & among al ye people: insomuch that they that were gone out of the garrison to robbe, were afrayde also, & the earth trembled, for the feare that was sent of God |
[15]And there was tremblingH2731 in the hostH4264, in the fieldH7704, and among all the peopleH5971: the garrisonH4673, and the spoilersH7843[H8688], they also trembledH2729[H8804], and the earthH776 quakedH7264[H8799]: so it was a very greatH430 tremblingH2731. |
| [16]And the watchmen of Saul in Gibea Beniamin, sawe: And behold, the multitude were discomfited, & were smitten as they went |
[16]And the watchmenH6822[H8802] of SaulH7586 in GibeahH1390 of BenjaminH1144 lookedH7200[H8799]; and, behold, the multitudeH1995 melted awayH4127[H8738], and they wentH3212[H8799] on beating downH1986 one anotherH8800. |
| [17]Then sayd Saul vnto the people that was with him: Searche, and see who is gone away from vs. And when they had numbred, beholde, Ionathan and his harnesse bearer were not there |
[17]Then saidH559[H8799] SaulH7586 unto the peopleH5971 that were with him, NumberH6485[H8798] now, and seeH7200[H8798] who is goneH1980[H8804] from us. And when they had numberedH6485[H8799], behold, JonathanH3129 and his armourbearerH5375[H8802] were not thereH3627. |
| [18]And Saul sayd vnto Ahia: Bring hyther the arke of God. (For the arke of God was at time with the children of Israel. |
[18]And SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799] unto AhiahH281, Bring hitherH5066[H8685] the arkH727 of GodH430. For the arkH727 of GodH430 was at that timeH3117 with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. |
| [19]And while Saul talked vnto ye priest, the noyse that was in the hoaste of the Philistines spred farther abrode and encreased. And Saul sayd vnto the priest: Withdrawe thyne hande |
[19]And it came to pass, while SaulH7586 talkedH1696[H8765] unto the priestH3548, that the noiseH1995 that was in the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430 wentH3212[H8799] onH1980[H8800] and increasedH7227: and SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799] unto the priestH3548, WithdrawH622[H8798] thine handH3027. |
| [20]And Saul ioyned him selfe vnto al the people that were with him, & they came to the battell, and behold euery mans sword was against his felow, and there was a very great discomfiture |
[20]And SaulH7586 and all the peopleH5971 that were with him assembledH2199[H8735] themselves, and they cameH935[H8799] to the battleH4421: and, behold, every man'sH376 swordH2719 was against his fellowH7453, and there was a veryH3966 greatH1419 discomfitureH4103. |
| [21]Moreouer, the Hebrues that were with the Philistines before that tyme, & were come with them into all partes of the hoaste, turned to be with the Israelites that were with Saul and Ionathan |
[21]Moreover the HebrewsH5680 that were with the PhilistinesH6430 beforeH865 that timeH8032, which went upH5927[H8804] with them into the campH4264 from the country round aboutH5439, even they also turned to be with the IsraelitesH3478 that were with SaulH7586 and JonathanH3129. |
| [22]And all the men of Israel also, whiche had hyd the selues in mount Ephraim, assoone as they hearde howe that the Philistines were fled, they folowed after them in the battel |
[22]Likewise all the menH376 of IsraelH3478 which had hidH2244[H8693] themselves in mountH2022 EphraimH669, when they heardH8085[H8804] that the PhilistinesH6430 fledH5127[H8804], even they also followed hardH1692[H8686] afterH310 them in the battleH4421. |
| [23]And so the Lorde saued Israel that day: and the battel continued vnto Bethauen |
[23]So the LORDH3068 savedH3467[H8686] IsraelH3478 that dayH3117: and the battleH4421 passed overH5674[H8804] unto BethavenH1007. |
| [24]And when the men of Israel were kepte downe with hunger that day, Saul charged the people with an oth, saying: Cursed be the man that eateth any foode vntill night, till I be auenged of myne enemies. And so none of the people tasted any sustenaunce |
[24]And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 were distressedH5065[H8738] that dayH3117: for SaulH7586 had adjuredH422[H8686] the peopleH5971, sayingH559[H8800], CursedH779[H8803] be the manH376 that eatethH398[H8799] any foodH3899 until eveningH6153, that I may be avengedH5358[H8738] on mine enemiesH341[H8802]. So none of the peopleH5971 tastedH2938[H8804] any foodH3899. |
| [25]And al they of the land came to a wood, where honie lay vpon the grounde |
[25]And all they of the landH776 cameH935[H8804] to a woodH3293; and there was honeyH1706 uponH6440 the groundH7704. |
| [26]And the people came into the wood: And behold, the honie dropped, and no man moued his hand to his mouth: for the people feared the oth |
[26]And when the peopleH5971 were comeH935[H8799] into the woodH3293, behold, the honeyH1706 droppedH1982; but no man putH5381[H8688] his handH3027 to his mouthH6310: for the peopleH5971 fearedH3372[H8804] the oathH7621. |
| [27]But Ionathan hearde not whe his father charged the people with the oth, wherfore he put foorth the ende of the rod that was in his hand, and dipt it in an honie combe, & put his hande to his mouth, and his eyes receaued sight |
[27]But JonathanH3129 heardH8085[H8804] not when his fatherH1 chargedH7650 the peopleH5971 with the oathH7650[H8687]: wherefore he put forthH7971[H8799] the endH7097 of the rodH4294 that was in his handH3027, and dippedH2881[H8799] it in an honeycombH3295[H1706], and putH7725[H8686] his handH3027 to his mouthH6310; and his eyesH5869 were enlightenedH215.[H8799] |
| [28]Then aunswered one of the people, and sayde: Thy father made the people to sweare, saying: Cursed be the ma that eateth any sustenaunce this day. And the people were faynt |
[28]Then answeredH6030[H8799] oneH376 of the peopleH5971, and saidH559[H8799], Thy fatherH1 straitlyH7650[H8687] chargedH7650 the peopleH5971 with an oathH7650[H8689], sayingH559[H8800], CursedH779[H8803] be the manH376 that eatethH398[H8799] any foodH3899 this dayH3117. And the peopleH5971 were faintH5774.[H8799] |
| [29]The sayd Ionathan, My father hath troubled the lande: See howe myne eyes hath receaued sight, because I tasted a litle of this honie |
[29]Then saidH559[H8799] JonathanH3129, My fatherH1 hath troubledH5916[H8804] the landH776: seeH7200[H8798], I pray you, how mine eyesH5869 have been enlightenedH215[H8804], because I tastedH2938[H8804] a littleH4592 of this honeyH1706. |
| [30]Howe muche more then to day, if the people had eaten of the spoyle of their enemies whiche they found? And had there not ben then a muche greater slaughter among the Philistines |
[30]How much moreH637, if haplyH3863 the peopleH5971 had eatenH398[H8804] freelyH398[H8800] to dayH3117 of the spoilH7998 of their enemiesH341[H8802] which they foundH4672[H8804]? for had there not been now a much greaterH7235[H8804] slaughterH4347 among the PhilistinesH6430? |
| [31]And they smote the Philistines that day, from Michmas to Aialon: And the people were exceeding faynt |
[31]And they smoteH5221[H8686] the PhilistinesH6430 that dayH3117 from MichmashH4363 to AijalonH357: and the peopleH5971 were veryH3966 faintH5774.[H8799] |
| [32]And the people gat them to the spoyle, and toke sheepe, oxen, and calues, & slue them on the ground, and the people dyd eate them with the blood |
[32]And the peopleH5971 flewH5860[H8799][H6213][H8799] upon the spoilH7998, and tookH3947[H8799] sheepH6629, and oxenH1241, and calvesH1121, and slewH7819[H8799] them on the groundH776: and the peopleH5971 did eatH398[H8799] them with the bloodH1818. |
| [33]Then men tolde Saul, saying: Behold, the people sinne against the Lorde, in that they eate with the blood. And he sayde, Ye haue trespassed: Rowle a great stone vnto me this day |
[33]Then they toldH5046[H8686] SaulH7586, sayingH559[H8800], Behold, the peopleH5971 sinH2398[H8802] against the LORDH3068, in that they eatH398[H8800] with the bloodH1818. And he saidH559[H8799], Ye have transgressedH898[H8804]: rollH1556[H8798] a greatH1419 stoneH68 unto me this dayH3117. |
| [34]And Saul sayde againe: Go abrode among the people, and bid them bring me euery man his oxe, and euery man his sheepe, and slay them here, and eate, and sinne not against the Lorde in eating with the blood. And the people brought euery man his oxe in his hande that night, and slue them there |
[34]And SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799], DisperseH6327[H8798] yourselves among the peopleH5971, and sayH559[H8804] unto them, Bring me hitherH5066[H8685] every manH376 his oxH7794, and every manH376 his sheepH7716, and slayH7819[H8804] them here, and eatH398[H8804]; and sinH2398[H8799] not against the LORDH3068 in eatingH398[H8800] with the bloodH1818. And all the peopleH5971 broughtH5066[H8686] every manH376 his oxH7794 with himH3027 that nightH3915, and slewH7819 them thereH8799. |
| [35]And Saul made an aulter vnto ye Lord: And that was the first aulter that he made vnto the Lorde |
[35]And SaulH7586 builtH1129[H8799] an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068: the same was the firstH2490[H8689] altarH4196 that he builtH1129[H8800] unto the LORDH3068. |
| [36]And Saul sayde: Let vs go downe after the Philistines by night, and spoyle them, vntil it be day in the morning, and let vs not leaue one man of them. And they sayde: Do whatsoeuer thou thinkest best. Then sayde the priest: Let vs come hyther vnto God |
[36]And SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799], Let us go downH3381[H8799] afterH310 the PhilistinesH6430 by nightH3915, and spoilH962[H8799] them until the morningH1242 lightH216, and let us not leaveH7604[H8686] a manH376 of them. And they saidH559[H8799], DoH6213[H8798] whatsoever seemethH5869 goodH2896 unto thee. Then saidH559[H8799] the priestH3548, Let us draw nearH7126[H8799] hitherH1988 unto GodH430. |
| [37]And Saul asked of God: Shall I go downe after the Philistines? Wilt thou deliuer them into the handes of Israel? But he aunswered him not at that time |
[37]And SaulH7586 askedH7592[H8799] counsel of GodH430, Shall I go downH3381[H8799] afterH310 the PhilistinesH6430? wilt thou deliverH5414[H8799] them into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478? But he answeredH6030[H8804] him not that dayH3117. |
| [38]And Saul sayde: Let al the chiefe of the people come hyther, and knowe and see by whom this sinne is done this day |
[38]And SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799], Draw ye nearH5066[H8798] hitherH1988, all the chiefH6438 of the peopleH5971: and knowH3045[H8798] and seeH7200[H8798] whereinH4100 this sinH2403 hath been this dayH3117. |
| [39]For as the Lorde liueth, whiche saued Israel, though it be in Ionathan my sonne, he shal dye the death. But there was no man among all the people that aunswered him |
[39]For, as the LORDH3068 livethH2416, which savethH3467[H8688] IsraelH3478, though it beH3426 in JonathanH3129 my sonH1121, he shall surelyH4191[H8800] dieH4191[H8799]. But there was not a man among all the peopleH5971 that answeredH6030 himH8802. |
| [40]Then he sayde vnto al Israel: Be ye on one syde, and I and Ionathan my sonne will be on the other syde. And the people saide vnto Saul: What thou thinkest best, that do |
[40]Then saidH559[H8799] he unto all IsraelH3478, Be ye on oneH259 sideH5676, and I and JonathanH3129 my sonH1121 will be on the otherH259 sideH5676. And the peopleH5971 saidH559[H8799] unto SaulH7586, DoH6213[H8798] what seemethH5869 good unto theeH2896. |
| [41]Therfore Saul saide vnto the Lorde God of Israel, geue a perfect lot. And Saul and Ionathan were caught: but the people scaped free |
[41]Therefore SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799] unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, GiveH3051[H8798] a perfectH8549 lot. And SaulH7586 and JonathanH3129 were takenH3920[H8735]: but the peopleH5971 escapedH3318.[H8804] |
| [42]And Saul said: Cast lot betweene me and Ionathan my sonne. And Ionathan was caught |
[42]And SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799], CastH5307[H8685] lots between me and JonathanH3129 my sonH1121. And JonathanH3129 was takenH3920.[H8735] |
| [43]Then Saul saide to Ionathan: Tell me what thou hast done. And Ionathan tolde him, and sayde: I tasted a litle honie with the ende of the rod that was in myne hand, & lo, I must dye |
[43]Then SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799] to JonathanH3129, TellH5046[H8685] me what thou hast doneH6213[H8804]. And JonathanH3129 toldH5046[H8686] him, and saidH559[H8799], I did butH2938[H8800] tasteH2938[H8804] a littleH4592 honeyH1706 with the endH7097 of the rodH4294 that was in mine handH3027, and, loH2009, I must dieH4191.[H8799] |
| [44]Saul aunswered: God do so & more also to me, thou shalt dye the death Ionathan |
[44]And SaulH7586 answeredH559[H8799], GodH430 do soH6213[H8799] and more alsoH3254[H8686]: for thou shalt surelyH4191[H8800] dieH4191[H8799], JonathanH3129. |
| [45]And the people said vnto Saul: Shal Ionathan dye, which hath so mightilie deliuered Israel? God forbid. As the Lord lyueth, there shall not one heere of his head fall to ye ground, for he hath wrought with God this daye. And so the people deliuered Ionathan, that he dyed not |
[45]And the peopleH5971 saidH559[H8799] unto SaulH7586, Shall JonathanH3129 dieH4191[H8799], who hath wroughtH6213[H8804] this greatH1419 salvationH3444 in IsraelH3478?

So the peopleH5971 rescuedH6299[H8799] JonathanH3129, that he diedH4191 notH8804. |
| [46]And then Saul departed vp from folowing the Philistines: And the Philistines went to their owne place |

| [48]And he gathered his hoast together, & smote the Amalekites, & rid Israel out of the handes of them that spoyled them |
[48]And he gatheredH6213[H8799] an hostH2428, and smoteH5221[H8686] the AmalekitesH6002, and deliveredH5337[H8686] IsraelH3478 out of the handsH3027 of them that spoiledH8154 themH8802. |

| [52]And there was sore warre against the Philistines all ye dayes of Saul: And whomsoeuer Saul sawe to be a strong man, and meete for the warre, he toke him vnto him |
[52]And there was soreH2389 warH4421 against the PhilistinesH6430 all the daysH3117 of SaulH7586: and when SaulH7586 sawH7200[H8804] any strongH1368 manH376, or any valiantH2428 manH1121, he tookH622 him unto himH8799. |
