1 Samuel 14:44-46

Complete Jewish Bible

⁴⁴ Sha’ul said, “May God do the same to me and more also if you are not put to death, Y’honatan!” ⁴⁵ But the people said to Sha’ul, “Must Y’honatan die, who has accomplished this great deliverance in Isra’el? Heaven forbid! As Adonai lives, not one hair of his head will fall to the ground; because he worked with God today!” In this way the people rescued Y’honatan, so that he didn’t die. ⁴⁶ Then Sha’ul stopped pursuing the P’lishtim, and the P’lishtim returned to their own territory.
