1 Samuel 12:14

12:14 If you fear the Lord, serving him and obeying him ¹  and not rebelling against what he says, ²  and if both you and the king who rules over you follow the Lord your God, all will be well. ³ 

1 Samuel 14:27

14:27 But Jonathan had not heard about the oath his father had made the army take. He extended the end of his staff that was in his hand and dipped it in the honeycomb. When he ate it, ⁴  his eyes gleamed. ⁵ 

[12:14]  ¹ tn Heb “and you listen to his voice.”

[12:14]  ² tn Heb “the mouth of the Lord.” So also in v. 15.

[12:14]  ³ tn The words “all will be well” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[14:27]  ⁴ tn Heb “and he returned his hand to his mouth.”

[14:27]  ⁵ tc The translation follows the Qere and several medieval Hebrew mss in reading “gleamed,” rather than the Kethib, “saw.”
