1 Samuel 14:30-52

14:30

How much more
<0637>_,

if haply
<03863>

the people
<05971>

had eaten
<0398> (8804)

freely
<0398> (8800)

to day
<03117>

of the spoil
<07998>

of their enemies
<0341> (8802)

which they found
<04672> (8804)_?

for had there not been now a much greater
<07235> (8804)

slaughter
<04347>

among the Philistines
<06430>_?

14:31

And they smote
<05221> (8686)

the Philistines
<06430>

that day
<03117>

from Michmash
<04363>

to Aijalon
<0357>_:

and the people
<05971>

were very
<03966>

faint
<05774> (8799)_.

14:32

And the people
<05971>

flew
<05860> (8799) <06213> (8799)

upon the spoil
<07998>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

sheep
<06629>_,

and oxen
<01241>_,

and calves
<01121>_,

and slew
<07819> (8799)

[them] on the ground
<0776>_:

and the people
<05971>

did eat
<0398> (8799)

[them] with the blood
<01818>_.

14:33

Then they told
<05046> (8686)

Saul
<07586>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Behold, the people
<05971>

sin
<02398> (8802)

against the LORD
<03068>_,

in that they eat
<0398> (8800)

with the blood
<01818>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Ye have transgressed
<0898> (8804)_:

roll
<01556> (8798)

a great
<01419>

stone
<068>

unto me this day
<03117>_.

{transgressed: or, dealt treacherously}

14:34

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Disperse
<06327> (8798)

yourselves among the people
<05971>_,

and say
<0559> (8804)

unto them, Bring me hither
<05066> (8685)

every man
<0376>

his ox
<07794>_,

and every man
<0376>

his sheep
<07716>_,

and slay
<07819> (8804)

[them] here, and eat
<0398> (8804)_;

and sin
<02398> (8799)

not against the LORD
<03068>

in eating
<0398> (8800)

with the blood
<01818>_.

And all the people
<05971>

brought
<05066> (8686)

every man
<0376>

his ox
<07794>

with him
<03027>

that night
<03915>_,

and slew
<07819> (8799)

[them] there. {with him: Heb. in his hand}

14:35

And Saul
<07586>

built
<01129> (8799)

an altar
<04196>

unto the LORD
<03068>_:

the same was the first
<02490> (8689)

altar
<04196>

that he built
<01129> (8800)

unto the LORD
<03068>_.

{the same...: Heb. that altar he began to build unto the LORD}

14:36

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let us go down
<03381> (8799)

after
<0310>

the Philistines
<06430>

by night
<03915>_,

and spoil
<0962> (8799)

them until the morning
<01242>

light
<0216>_,

and let us not leave
<07604> (8686)

a man
<0376>

of them. And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Do
<06213> (8798)

whatsoever seemeth
<05869>

good
<02896>

unto thee. Then said
<0559> (8799)

the priest
<03548>_,

Let us draw near
<07126> (8799)

hither
<01988>

unto God
<0430>_.

14:37

And Saul
<07586>

asked
<07592> (8799)

counsel of God
<0430>_,

Shall I go down
<03381> (8799)

after
<0310>

the Philistines
<06430>_?

wilt thou deliver
<05414> (8799)

them into the hand
<03027>

of Israel
<03478>_?

But he answered
<06030> (8804)

him not that day
<03117>_.

14:38

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Draw ye near
<05066> (8798)

hither
<01988>_,

all the chief
<06438>

of the people
<05971>_:

and know
<03045> (8798)

and see
<07200> (8798)

wherein
<04100>

this sin
<02403>

hath been this day
<03117>_.

{chief: Heb. corners}

14:39

For, [as] the LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_,

which saveth
<03467> (8688)

Israel
<03478>_,

though it be
<03426>

in Jonathan
<03129>

my son
<01121>_,

he shall surely
<04191> (8800)

die
<04191> (8799)_.

But [there was] not a man among all the people
<05971>

[that] answered
<06030> (8802)

him.

14:40

Then said
<0559> (8799)

he unto all Israel
<03478>_,

Be ye on one
<0259>

side
<05676>_,

and I and Jonathan
<03129>

my son
<01121>

will be on the other
<0259>

side
<05676>_.

And the people
<05971>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Saul
<07586>_,

Do
<06213> (8798)

what seemeth
<05869>

good
<02896>

unto thee.

14:41

Therefore Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

Give
<03051> (8798)

a perfect
<08549>

[lot]. And Saul
<07586>

and Jonathan
<03129>

were taken
<03920> (8735)_:

but the people
<05971>

escaped
<03318> (8804)_.

{Give...: or, Shew the innocent} {escaped: Heb. went forth}

14:42

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Cast
<05307> (8685)

[lots] between me and Jonathan
<03129>

my son
<01121>_.

And Jonathan
<03129>

was taken
<03920> (8735)_.

14:43

Then Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Jonathan
<03129>_,

Tell
<05046> (8685)

me what thou hast done
<06213> (8804)_.

And Jonathan
<03129>

told
<05046> (8686)

him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

I did but
<02938> (8800)

taste
<02938> (8804)

a little
<04592>

honey
<01706>

with the end
<07097>

of the rod
<04294>

that [was] in mine hand
<03027>_,

[and], lo
<02009>_,

I must die
<04191> (8799)_.

14:44

And Saul
<07586>

answered
<0559> (8799)_,

God
<0430>

do so
<06213> (8799)

and more also
<03254> (8686)_:

for thou shalt surely
<04191> (8800)

die
<04191> (8799)_,

Jonathan
<03129>_.

14:45

And the people
<05971>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Saul
<07586>_,

Shall Jonathan
<03129>

die
<04191> (8799)_,

who hath wrought
<06213> (8804)

this great
<01419>

salvation
<03444>

in Israel
<03478>_?

God forbid
<02486>_:

[as] the LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_,

there shall not one hair
<08185>

of his head
<07218>

fall
<05307> (8799)

to the ground
<0776>_;

for he hath wrought
<06213> (8804)

with God
<0430>

this day
<03117>_.

So the people
<05971>

rescued
<06299> (8799)

Jonathan
<03129>_,

that he died
<04191> (8804)

not.

14:46

Then Saul
<07586>

went up
<05927> (8799)

from following
<0310>

the Philistines
<06430>_:

and the Philistines
<06430>

went
<01980> (8804)

to their own place
<04725>_.

14:47

So Saul
<07586>

took
<03920> (8804)

the kingdom
<04410>

over Israel
<03478>_,

and fought
<03898> (8735)

against all his enemies
<0341> (8802)

on every side
<05439>_,

against Moab
<04124>_,

and against the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_,

and against Edom
<0123>_,

and against the kings
<04428>

of Zobah
<06678>_,

and against the Philistines
<06430>_:

and whithersoever he turned
<06437> (8799)

himself, he vexed
<07561> (8686)

[them].

14:48

And he gathered
<06213> (8799)

an host
<02428>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

the Amalekites
<06002>_,

and delivered
<05337> (8686)

Israel
<03478>

out of the hands
<03027>

of them that spoiled
<08154> (8802)

them. {gathered...: or, wrought mightily}

14:49

Now the sons
<01121>

of Saul
<07586>

were Jonathan
<03129>_,

and Ishui
<03440>_,

and Melchishua
<04444>_:

and the names
<08034>

of his two
<08147>

daughters
<01323>

[were these]; the name
<08034>

of the firstborn
<01067>

Merab
<04764>_,

and the name
<08034>

of the younger
<06996>

Michal
<04324>_:

14:50

And the name
<08034>

of Saul's
<07586>

wife
<0802>

[was] Ahinoam
<0293>_,

the daughter
<01323>

of Ahimaaz
<0290>_:

and the name
<08034>

of the captain
<08269>

of his host
<06635>

[was] Abner
<074>_,

the son
<01121>

of Ner
<05369>_,

Saul's
<07586>

uncle
<01730>_.

{Abner: Heb. Abiner}

14:51

And Kish
<07027>

[was] the father
<01>

of Saul
<07586>_;

and Ner
<05369>

the father
<01>

of Abner
<074>

[was] the son
<01121>

of Abiel
<022>_.

14:52

And there was sore
<02389>

war
<04421>

against the Philistines
<06430>

all the days
<03117>

of Saul
<07586>_:

and when Saul
<07586>

saw
<07200> (8804)

any strong
<01368>

man
<0376>_,

or any valiant
<02428>

man
<01121>_,

he took
<0622> (8799)

him unto him.
