1 Samuel 14:9-17
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 14
9
If they say to us, ‘Wait until we come to you’; then we will stand in our place and not go up to them.
10
But if they say, ‘Come up to us,’ then we will go up, for the
Lord
has handed them over to us; and this
shall be
the sign to us.'
11
When the two of them revealed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines, the Philistines said, 'Behold, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have kept themselves hidden.'
12
So the men of the garrison responded to Jonathan and his armor bearer and said, 'Come up to us and we will inform you of something.' And Jonathan said to his armor bearer, 'Come up after me, for the
Lord
has handed them over to Israel.'
13
Then Jonathan climbed up on his hands and feet, with his armor bearer behind him; and
the men
fell before Jonathan, and his armor bearer put some to death after him.
14
Now that first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor bearer inflicted was about twenty men within about half a furrow in an acre of land.
15
And there was a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. Even the garrison and the raiders trembled, and the earth quaked so that it became a great trembling.
16
Now Saul’s watchmen in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude dissolved; they went here
and there.
17
So Saul said to the people who
were
with him, 'Look carefully now and see who has left us.' And when they had looked, behold, Jonathan and his armor bearer were not
there.
King James Version
Chapter 14
9
If they say thus unto us, Tarry until we come to you; then we will stand still in our place, and will not go up unto them.
10
But if they say thus, Come up unto us; then we will go up: for the
Lord
hath delivered them into our hand: and this shall be a sign unto us.
11
And both of them discovered themselves unto the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of the holes where they had hid themselves.
12
And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armourbearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said unto his armourbearer, Come up after me: for the
Lord
hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.
13
And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armourbearer after him: and they fell before Jonathan; and his armourbearer slew after him.
14
And that first slaughter, which Jonathan and his armourbearer made, was about twenty men, within as it were an half acre of land, which a yoke of oxen might plow.
15
And there was trembling in the host, in the field, and among all the people: the garrison, and the spoilers, they also trembled, and the earth quaked: so it was a very great trembling.
16
And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked; and, behold, the multitude melted away, and they went on beating down one another.
17
Then said Saul unto the people that were with him, Number now, and see who is gone from us. And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armourbearer were not there.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 14
9
If they say, ‘Wait until we reach you,’ then we will stay where we are and not go up to them.
10
But if they say, ‘Come on up,’ then we’ll go up, because the
Lord
has handed them over to us—that will be our sign."
11
They let themselves be seen by the Philistine garrison, and the Philistines said, "Look, the Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they’ve been hiding!"
12
The men of the garrison called to Jonathan and his armor-bearer. "Come on up, and we’ll teach you a lesson!" they said. "Follow me," Jonathan told his armor-bearer, "for the
Lord
has handed them over to Israel."
13
Jonathan climbed up using his hands and feet, with his armor-bearer behind him. Jonathan cut them down, and his armor-bearer followed and finished them off.
14
In that first assault Jonathan and his armor-bearer struck down about twenty men in a half-acre field.
15
Terror spread through the Philistine camp and the open fields to all the troops. Even the garrison and the raiding parties were terrified. The earth shook, and terror spread from God.
16
When Saul’s watchmen in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, they saw the panicking troops scattering in every direction.
17
So Saul said to the troops with him, "Call the roll and determine who has left us." They called the roll and saw that Jonathan and his armor-bearer were gone.
New Living Translation
Chapter 14
9
If they say to us, ‘Stay where you are or we’ll kill you,’ then we will stop and not go up to them.
10
But if they say, ‘Come on up and fight,’ then we will go up. That will be the
Lord
’s sign that he will help us defeat them.'
11
When the Philistines saw them coming, they shouted, 'Look! The Hebrews are crawling out of their holes!'
12
Then the men from the outpost shouted to Jonathan, 'Come on up here, and we’ll teach you a lesson!' 'Come on, climb right behind me,' Jonathan said to his armor bearer, 'for the
Lord
will help us defeat them!'
13
So they climbed up using both hands and feet, and the Philistines fell before Jonathan, and his armor bearer killed those who came behind them.
14
They killed some twenty men in all, and their bodies were scattered over about half an acre.
15
Suddenly, panic broke out in the Philistine army, both in the camp and in the field, including even the outposts and raiding parties. And just then an earthquake struck, and everyone was terrified.
16
Saul’s lookouts in Gibeah of Benjamin saw a strange sight — the vast army of Philistines began to melt away in every direction.
17
Call the roll and find out who’s missing,' Saul ordered. And when they checked, they found that Jonathan and his armor bearer were gone.
English Standard Version
Chapter 14
9
If they say to us, ‘Wait until we come to you,’ then we will stand still in our place, and we will not go up to them.
10
But if they say, ‘Come up to us,’ then we will go up, for the
Lord
has given them into our hand. And this shall be the sign to us."
11
So both of them showed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines. And the Philistines said, "Look, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hidden themselves."
12
And the men of the garrison hailed Jonathan and his armor-bearer and said, "Come up to us, and we will show you a thing." And Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, "Come up after me, for the
Lord
has given them into the hand of Israel."
13
Then Jonathan climbed up on his hands and feet, and his armor-bearer after him. And they fell before Jonathan, and his armor-bearer killed them after him.
14
And that first strike, which Jonathan and his armor-bearer made, killed about twenty men within as it were half a furrow 's length in an acre of land.
15
And there was a panic in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. The garrison and even the raiders trembled, the earth quaked, and it became a very great panic.
16
And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude was dispersing here and there.
17
Then Saul said to the people who were with him, "Count and see who has gone from us." And when they had counted, behold, Jonathan and his armor-bearer were not there.
New International Version
Chapter 14
9
If they say to us, ‘Wait there until we come to you,’ we will stay where we are and not go up to them.
10
But if they say, ‘Come up to us,’ we will climb up, because that will be our sign that the
Lord
has given them into our hands."
11
So both of them showed themselves to the Philistine outpost. "Look!" said the Philistines. "The Hebrews are crawling out of the holes they were hiding in."
12
The men of the outpost shouted to Jonathan and his armor-bearer, "Come up to us and we’ll teach you a lesson." So Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, "Climb up after me; the
Lord
has given them into the hand of Israel."
13
Jonathan climbed up, using his hands and feet, with his armor-bearer right behind him. The Philistines fell before Jonathan, and his armor-bearer followed and killed behind him.
14
In that first attack Jonathan and his armor-bearer killed some twenty men in an area of about half an acre.
15
Then panic struck the whole army—those in the camp and field, and those in the outposts and raiding parties—and the ground shook. It was a panic sent by God.
16
Saul’s lookouts at Gibeah in Benjamin saw the army melting away in all directions.
17
Then Saul said to the men who were with him, "Muster the forces and see who has left us." When they did, it was Jonathan and his armor-bearer who were not there.
New King James Version
Chapter 14
9
If they say thus to us, ‘Wait until we come to you,’ then we will stand still in our place and not go up to them.
10
But if they say thus, ‘Come up to us,’ then we will go up. For the
Lord
has delivered them into our hand, and this
will be
a sign to us.”
11
So both of them showed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines. And the Philistines said, “Look, the Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hidden.”
12
Then the men of the garrison called to Jonathan and his armorbearer, and said, “Come up to us, and we will show you something.” Jonathan said to his armorbearer, “Come up after me, for the
Lord
has delivered them into the hand of Israel.”
13
And Jonathan climbed up on his hands and knees with his armorbearer after him; and they fell before Jonathan. And as he came after him, his armorbearer killed them.
14
That first slaughter which Jonathan and his armorbearer made was about twenty men within about half an acre of land.
15
And there was trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. The garrison and the raiders also trembled; and the earth quaked, so that it was a very great trembling.
16
Now the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and
there
was the multitude, melting away; and they went here and there.
17
Then Saul said to the people who
were
with him, “Now call the roll and see who has gone from us.” And when they had called the roll, surprisingly, Jonathan and his armorbearer
were
not
there.
