1 Samuel 14:45-47
1599 Geneva Bible
45 And the people said unto Saul, [a]Shall Jonathan die, who hath so mightily delivered Israel? God forbid. As the Lord liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground: for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people delivered Jonathan that he died not.
46 Then Saul came up from the Philistines: and the Philistines went to their own place.
47 ¶ So Saul held the kingdom over Israel, and fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the Kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines: and whithersoever he went, he [b]handled them as wicked men.
