1 Samuel 14:9-22

14:9

If they say
<0559> (8799)

thus unto us, Tarry
<01826> (8798)

until we come
<05060> (8687)

to you; then we will stand still
<05975> (8804)

in our place, and will not go up
<05927> (8799)

unto them. {Tarry: Heb. Be still}

14:10

But if they say
<0559> (8799)

thus, Come up
<05927> (8798)

unto us; then we will go up
<05927> (8804)_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath delivered
<05414> (8804)

them into our hand
<03027>_:

and this [shall be] a sign
<0226>

unto us.

14:11

And both
<08147>

of them discovered
<01540> (8735)

themselves unto the garrison
<04673>

of the Philistines
<06430>_:

and the Philistines
<06430>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, the Hebrews
<05680>

come forth
<03318> (8802)

out of the holes
<02356>

where they had hid
<02244> (8694)

themselves.

14:12

And the men
<0582>

of the garrison
<04675>

answered
<06030> (8799)

Jonathan
<03129>

and his armourbearer
<05375> (8802) <03627>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Come up
<05927> (8798)

to us, and we will shew
<03045> (8686)

you a thing
<01697>_.

And Jonathan
<03129>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his armourbearer
<05375> (8802) <03627>_,

Come up
<05927> (8798)

after
<0310>

me: for the LORD
<03068>

hath delivered
<05414> (8804)

them into the hand
<03027>

of Israel
<03478>_.

14:13

And Jonathan
<03129>

climbed up
<05927> (8799)

upon his hands
<03027>

and upon his feet
<07272>_,

and his armourbearer
<05375> (8802) <03627>

after
<0310>

him: and they fell
<05307> (8799)

before
<06440>

Jonathan
<03129>_;

and his armourbearer
<05375> (8802) <03627>

slew
<04191> (8789)

after
<0310>

him.

14:14

And that first
<07223>

slaughter
<04347>_,

which Jonathan
<03129>

and his armourbearer
<05375> (8802) <03627>

made
<05221> (8689)_,

was about twenty
<06242>

men
<0376>_,

within as it were an half
<02677>

acre
<04618>

of land
<07704>_,

[which] a yoke
<06776>

[of oxen might plow]. {an...: or, half a furrow of an acre of land}

14:15

And there was trembling
<02731>

in the host
<04264>_,

in the field
<07704>_,

and among all the people
<05971>_:

the garrison
<04673>_,

and the spoilers
<07843> (8688)_,

they also trembled
<02729> (8804)_,

and the earth
<0776>

quaked
<07264> (8799)_:

so it was a very great
<0430>

trembling
<02731>_.

{a very...: Heb. a trembling of God}

14:16

And the watchmen
<06822> (8802)

of Saul
<07586>

in Gibeah
<01390>

of Benjamin
<01144>

looked
<07200> (8799)_;

and, behold, the multitude
<01995>

melted away
<04127> (8738)_,

and they went
<03212> (8799)

on beating down
<01986> (8800)

[one another].

14:17

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Saul
<07586>

unto the people
<05971>

that [were] with him, Number
<06485> (8798)

now, and see
<07200> (8798)

who is gone
<01980> (8804)

from us. And when they had numbered
<06485> (8799)_,

behold, Jonathan
<03129>

and his armourbearer
<05375> (8802) <03627>

[were] not [there].

14:18

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Ahiah
<0281>_,

Bring hither
<05066> (8685)

the ark
<0727>

of God
<0430>_.

For the ark
<0727>

of God
<0430>

was at that time
<03117>

with the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_.

14:19

And it came to pass, while Saul
<07586>

talked
<01696> (8765)

unto the priest
<03548>_,

that the noise
<01995>

that [was] in the host
<04264>

of the Philistines
<06430>

went
<03212> (8799)

on
<01980> (8800)

and increased
<07227>_:

and Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the priest
<03548>_,

Withdraw
<0622> (8798)

thine hand
<03027>_.

{noise: or, tumult}

14:20

And Saul
<07586>

and all the people
<05971>

that [were] with him assembled
<02199> (8735)

themselves, and they came
<0935> (8799)

to the battle
<04421>_:

and, behold, every man's
<0376>

sword
<02719>

was against his fellow
<07453>_,

[and there was] a very
<03966>

great
<01419>

discomfiture
<04103>_.

{assembled...: Heb. were cried together}

14:21

Moreover the Hebrews
<05680>

[that] were with the Philistines
<06430>

before
<0865>

that time
<08032>_,

which went up
<05927> (8804)

with them into the camp
<04264>

[from the country] round about
<05439>_,

even they also [turned] to be with the Israelites
<03478>

that [were] with Saul
<07586>

and Jonathan
<03129>_.

14:22

Likewise all the men
<0376>

of Israel
<03478>

which had hid
<02244> (8693)

themselves in mount
<02022>

Ephraim
<0669>_,

[when] they heard
<08085> (8804)

that the Philistines
<06430>

fled
<05127> (8804)_,

even they also followed hard
<01692> (8686)

after
<0310>

them in the battle
<04421>_.
