1 Samuel 14:38-40
1599 Geneva Bible
38 ¶ And Saul said, (A)All [a]ye chief of the people, come ye hither, and know, and see by whom this sin is done this day.
39 For as the Lord liveth, which saveth Israel, though it be done by Jonathan my son, he shall die the death. But none of all the people answered him.
40 Then he said unto all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said unto Saul, Do what thou thinkest best.
