1 Samuel 14:38-40

Modern English Version

³⁸ Saul said, “Come here, all you leaders of the people, and observe and see how this sin has come about this day. ³⁹ For, as the Lord lives, who saves Israel, even if it is in Jonathan my son, he will surely die.” But there was not one who answered him from among all the people.

⁴⁰ Then he said to all Israel, “You will be on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side.”

And the people said to Saul, “Do what seems good to you.”
