7His armor bearer said to him, 'Do everything that is in your heart; turn yourself to it, and here I am with you, as your heart desires.' 8Then Jonathan said, 'Behold, we are going to cross over to the men and reveal ourselves to them. 9If they say to us, ‘Wait until we come to you’; then we will stand in our place and not go up to them. 10But 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.'King James Version
Chapter 14
7And his armourbearer said unto him, Do all that is in thine heart: turn thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heart. 8Then said Jonathan, Behold, we will pass over unto these men, and we will discover ourselves unto them. 9If 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. 10But 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.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 14
7His armor-bearer responded, "Do what is in your heart. Go ahead! I'm completely with you."
8"All right," Jonathan replied, "we'll cross over to the men and then let them see us.
9If they say, 'Wait until we reach you,' then we will stay where we are and not go up to them.
10But 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."
New Living Translation
8All right, then,' Jonathan told him. 'We will cross over and let them see us.
9If they say to us, ‘Stay where you are or we’ll kill you,’ then we will stop and not go up to them.
10But 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.'

7And his armor-bearer said to him, “Do all that is in your heart. Do as you wish. Behold, I am with you heart and soul.” 8Then Jonathan said, “Behold, we will cross over to the men, and we will show ourselves to them. 9If 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. 10But 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.”New International Version

7Do all that you have in mind,' his armor-bearer said. 'Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul.'
8Jonathan said, 'Come on, then; we will cross over toward them and let them see us.
9If they say to us, 'Wait there until we come to you,' we will stay where we are and not go up to them.
10But 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.'
