1 Samuel 14:44-46
1599 Geneva Bible
44 Again Saul answered, God do so and more also, unless thou die the death, Jonathan.
45 And the people said unto Saul, [a]Shall Jonathan die, who hath so mightily delivered Israel? God forbid. As the Lord liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground: for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people delivered Jonathan that he died not.
46 Then Saul came up from the Philistines: and the Philistines went to their own place.

1 Samuel 14:44-46
New International Version
44 Saul said, “May God deal with me, be it ever so severely,(A) if you do not die, Jonathan.(B)”
45 But the men said to Saul, “Should Jonathan die—he who has brought about this great deliverance in Israel? Never! As surely as the Lord lives, not a hair(C) of his head will fall to the ground, for he did this today with God’s help.” So the men rescued(D) Jonathan, and he was not put to death.
46 Then Saul stopped pursuing the Philistines, and they withdrew to their own land.
