1 Samuel 14:38-40

Revised Geneva Translation

³⁸ And Saul said, “All you chiefs of the people, come here and know and see by whom this sin is done this day.

³⁹ “For as the LORD lives Who saves Israel, even though it is done by Jonathan, my son, he shall die the death.” But none of the people answered him.

⁴⁰ Then he said to all Israel, “You be on one side; and I and Jonathan, my son, will be on the other side.” And the people said to Saul, “Do what you think best.”
