and take spoil among them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. They said, Do whatever seems good to you. Then said the priest, Let us draw near here to God. 014:037 Saul asked counsel of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? will you deliver them into the hand of Israel? But he didn't answer him that day. 014:038 Saul said, Draw near here, all you chiefs of the people; and know and see in which this sin has been this day. 014:039 For, as Yahweh lives, who saves Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. But there was not a man among all the people who answered him. 014:040 Then said he to all Israel, Be you on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. The people said to Saul, Do what seems good to you. 014:041 Therefore Saul said to Yahweh, the God of Israel, Show the right. Jonathan and Saul were taken [by lot]; but the people escaped. 014:042 Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and Jonathan my son. Jonathan was taken. 014:043 Then Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what you have done. Jonathan told him, and said, I did certainly taste a little honey with the end of the rod that was in my hand; and behold, I must die. 014:044 Saul said, God do so and more also; for you shall surely die, Jonathan. 014:045 The people said to Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who has worked this great salvation in Israel?

The name of the captain of his army was Abner the son of Ner, Saul's uncle. 014:051 Kish was the father of Saul; and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel. 014:052 There was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul: and when Saul saw any mighty man, or any valiant man, he took him to him. 015:001 Samuel said to Saul, Yahweh sent me to anoint you to be king
