Then saide the Priest, Let vs drawe neere hither vnto God. 37 So Saul asked of God, saying, Shall I goe downe after ye Philistims? wilt thou deliuer them into the hands of Israel? But he answered him not at that time. 38 And Saul said, All ye chiefe of the people, come ye hither, and knowe, and see by whom this sinne is done this day. 39 For as the Lord liueth, which saueth Israel, though it be done by Ionathan my sonne, he shall dye the death. But none of all the people answered him. 40 Then he saide vnto all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Ionathan my sonne will be on the other side; the people saide vnto Saul, Doe what thou thinkest best. 41 Then Saul said vnto the Lord God of Israel, Giue a perfite lot. And Ionathan and Saul were taken, but the people escaped. 42 And Saul saide, Cast lot betweene me and Ionathan my sonne; Ionathan was taken. 43 Then Saul said to Ionathan, Tell me what thou hast done; Ionathan tolde him, & said, I tasted a litle hony with the ende of the rod, that was in mine hand, and loe, I must die. 44 Againe Saul answered, God doe so & more also, vnlesse thou die the death, Ionathan. 45 And the people said vnto Saul, Shall Ionathan die, who hath so mightily deliuered Israel? God forbid. As the Lord liueth, there shall not one heare of his head fall to the ground: for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people deliuered Ionathan that he dyed not. 46 Then Saul came vp from the Philistims: and the Philistims went to their owne place.
