And the people{H5971} knew{H3045}{(H8804)} not that Jonathan{H3129} was gone{H1980}{(H8804)}. 4 And between the passages{H4569}, by which Jonathan{H3129} sought{H1245}{(H8765)} to go over{H5674}{(H8800)} unto the Philistines{H6430}' garrison{H4673}, there was a sharp{H8127} rock{H5553} on the one side{H5676}, and a sharp{H8127} rock{H5553} on the other side{H5676}: and the name{H8034} of the one{H259} was Bozez{H949}, and the name{H8034} of the other{H259} Seneh{H5573}. 5 The forefront{H8127} of the one{H259} was situate{H4690} northward{H6828} over against{H4136} Michmash{H4363}, and the other{H259} southward{H5045} over against{H4136} Gibeah{H1387}. 6 And Jonathan{H3083} said{H559}{(H8799)} to the young man{H5288} that bare{H5375}{(H8802)} his armour{H3627}, Come{H3212}{(H8798)}, and let us go over{H5674}{(H8799)} unto the garrison{H4673} of these uncircumcised{H6189}: it may be that the LORD{H3068} will work{H6213}{(H8799)} for us: for there is no restraint{H4622} to the LORD{H3068} to save{H3467}{(H8687)} by many{H7227} or by few{H4592}. 7 And his armourbearer{H5375}{(H8802)}{H3627} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Do{H6213}{(H8798)} all that is in thine heart{H3824}: turn{H5186}{(H8798)} thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heart{H3824}. 8 Then said{H559}{(H8799)} Jonathan{H3083}, Behold, we will pass over{H5674}{(H8802)} unto these men{H582}, and we will discover{H1540}{(H8738)} ourselves unto them. 9 If they say{H559}{(H8799)} thus unto us, Tarry{H1826}{(H8798)} until we come{H5060}{(H8687)} to you; then we will stand still{H5975}{(H8804)} in our place, and will not go up{H5927}{(H8799)} unto them. 10 But if they say{H559}{(H8799)} thus, Come up{H5927}{(H8798)} unto us; then we will go up{H5927}{(H8804)}: for the LORD{H3068} hath delivered{H5414}{(H8804)} them into our hand{H3027}: and this shall be a sign{H226} unto us. 11 And both{H8147} of them discovered{H1540}{(H8735)} themselves unto the garrison{H4673} of the Philistines{H6430}: and the Philistines{H6430} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Behold, the Hebrews{H5680} come forth{H3318}{(H8802)} out of the holes{H2356} where they had hid{H2244}{(H8694)} themselves. 12 And the men{H582} of the garrison{H4675} answered{H6030}{(H8799)} Jonathan{H3129} and his armourbearer{H5375}{(H8802)}{H3627}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Come up{H5927}{(H8798)} to us, and we will shew{H3045}{(H8686)} you a thing{H1697}. And Jonathan{H3129} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto his armourbearer{H5375}{(H8802)}{H3627}, Come up{H5927}{(H8798)} after{H310} me: for the LORD{H3068} hath delivered{H5414}{(H8804)} them into the hand{H3027} of Israel{H3478}. 13 And Jonathan{H3129} climbed up{H5927}{(H8799)} upon his hands{H3027} and upon his feet{H7272}, and his armourbearer{H5375}{(H8802)}{H3627} after{H310} him: and they fell{H5307}{(H8799)} before{H6440} Jonathan{H3129}; and his armourbearer{H5375}{(H8802)}{H3627} slew{H4191}{(H8789)} after{H310} him. 14 And that first{H7223} slaughter{H4347}, which Jonathan{H3129} and his armourbearer{H5375}{(H8802)}{H3627} made{H5221}{(H8689)}, was about twenty{H6242} men{H376}, within as it were an half{H2677} acre{H4618} of land{H7704}, which a yoke{H6776} of oxen might plow. 15 And there was trembling{H2731} in the host{H4264}, in the field{H7704}, and among all the people{H5971}: the garrison{H4673}, and the spoilers{H7843}{(H8688)}, they also trembled{H2729}{(H8804)}, and the earth{H776} quaked{H7264}{(H8799)}: so it was a very great{H430} trembling{H2731}.

am not I a Philistine{H6430}, and ye servants{H5650} to Saul{H7586}? choose{H1262}{(H8798)} you a man{H376} for you, and let him come down{H3381}{(H8799)} to me. 9 If he be able{H3201}{(H8799)} to fight{H3898}{(H8736)} with me, and to kill{H5221}{(H8689)} me, then will we be your servants{H5650}: but if I prevail{H3201}{(H8799)} against him, and kill{H5221}{(H8689)} him, then shall ye be our servants{H5650}, and serve{H5647}{(H8804)} us. 10 And the Philistine{H6430} said{H559}{(H8799)}, I defy{H2778}{(H8765)} the armies{H4634} of Israel{H3478} this day{H3117}; give{H5414}{(H8798)} me a man{H376}, that we may fight{H3898}{(H8735)} together{H3162}. 11 When Saul{H7586} and all Israel{H3478} heard{H8085}{(H8799)} those words{H1697} of the Philistine{H6430}, they were dismayed{H2865}{(H8735)}, and greatly{H3966} afraid{H3372}{(H8799)}. 12 Now David{H1732} was the son{H1121} of that Ephrathite{H376}{H673} of Bethlehemjudah{H1035}{H3063}, whose name{H8034} was Jesse{H3448}; and he had eight{H8083} sons{H1121}: and the man{H376} went{H935}{(H8804)} among men{H582} for an old man{H2204}{(H8804)} in the days{H3117} of Saul{H7586}. 13 And the three{H7969} eldest{H1419} sons{H1121} of Jesse{H3448} went{H3212}{(H8799)} and followed{H310} Saul{H7586} to the battle{H4421}: and the names{H8034} of his three{H7969} sons{H1121} that went{H1980}{(H8804)} to the battle{H4421} were Eliab{H446} the firstborn{H1060}, and next{H4932} unto him Abinadab{H41}, and the third{H7992} Shammah{H8048}. 14 And David{H1732} was the youngest{H6996}: and the three{H7969} eldest{H1419} followed{H1980}{(H8804)}{H310} Saul{H7586}. 15 But David{H1732} went{H1980}{(H8802)} and returned{H7725}{(H8802)} from Saul{H7586} to feed{H7462}{(H8800)} his father's{H1} sheep{H6629} at Bethlehem{H1035}. 16 And the Philistine{H6430} drew near{H5066}{(H8799)} morning{H7925}{(H8687)} and evening{H6150}{(H8687)}, and presented{H3320}{(H8691)} himself forty{H705} days{H3117}. 17 And Jesse{H3448} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto David{H1732} his son{H1121}, Take{H3947}{(H8798)} now for thy brethren{H251} an ephah{H374} of this{H2088} parched{H7039} corn, and these ten{H6235} loaves{H3899}, and run{H7323}{(H8685)} to the camp{H4264} to thy brethren{H251}; 18 And carry{H935}{(H8686)} these ten{H6235} cheeses{H2461}{H2757} unto the captain{H8269} of their thousand{H505}, and look{H6485}{(H8799)} how thy brethren{H251} fare{H7965}, and take{H3947}{(H8799)} their pledge{H6161}. 19 Now Saul{H7586}, and they, and all the men{H376} of Israel{H3478}, were in the valley{H6010} of Elah{H425}, fighting{H3898}{(H8737)} with the Philistines{H6430}. 20 And David{H1732} rose up early{H7925}{(H8686)} in the morning{H1242}, and left{H5203}{(H8799)} the sheep{H6629} with a keeper{H8104}{(H8802)}, and took{H5375}{(H8799)}, and went{H3212}{(H8799)}, as Jesse{H3448} had commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} him; and he came{H935}{(H8799)} to the trench{H4570}, as the host{H2428} was going forth{H3318}{(H8802)} to the fight{H4634}, and shouted{H7321}{(H8689)} for the battle{H4421}. 21 For Israel{H3478} and the Philistines{H6430} had put the battle in array{H6186}{(H8799)}, army{H4634} against{H7125}{(H8800)} army{H4634}. 22 And David{H1732} left{H5203}{(H8799)} his carriage{H3627} in the hand{H3027} of the keeper{H8104}{(H8802)} of the carriage{H3627}, and ran{H7323}{(H8799)} into the army{H4634}, and came{H935}{(H8799)} and saluted{H7592}{(H8799)}{H7965} his brethren{H251}. 23 And as he talked{H1696}{(H8764)} with them, behold, there came up{H5927}{(H8802)} the champion{H376}{H1143}, the Philistine{H6430} of Gath{H1661}, Goliath{H1555} by name{H8034}, out of the armies{H4634}{(H8675)}{H4630} of the Philistines{H6430}, and spake{H1696}{(H8762)} according to the same{H428} words{H1697}: and David{H1732} heard{H8085}{(H8799)} them. 24 And all the men{H376} of Israel{H3478}, when they saw{H7200}{(H8800)} the man{H376}, fled{H5127}{(H8799)} from him{H6440}, and were sore{H3966} afraid{H3372}{(H8799)}. 25 And the men{H376} of Israel{H3478} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Have ye seen{H7200}{(H8804)} this man{H376} that is come up{H5927}{(H8802)}? surely to defy{H2778}{(H8763)} Israel{H3478} is he come up{H5927}{(H8802)}: and it shall be, that the man{H376} who killeth{H5221}{(H8686)} him, the king{H4428} will enrich{H6238}{(H8686)} him with great{H1419} riches{H6239}, and will give{H5414}{(H8799)} him his daughter{H1323}, and make{H6213}{(H8799)} his father's{H1} house{H1004} free{H2670} in Israel{H3478}. 26 And David{H1732} spake{H559}{(H8799)} to the men{H582} that stood{H5975}{(H8802)} by him, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, What shall be done{H6213}{(H8735)} to the man{H376} that killeth{H5221}{(H8686)} this{H1975} Philistine{H6430}, and taketh away{H5493}{(H8689)} the reproach{H2781} from Israel{H3478}? for who is this uncircumcised{H6189} Philistine{H6430}, that he should defy{H2778}{(H8765)} the armies{H4634} of the living{H2416} God{H430}? 27 And the people{H5971} answered{H559}{(H8799)} him after this manner{H1697}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, So shall it be done{H6213}{(H8735)} to the man{H376} that killeth{H5221}{(H8686)} him. 28 And Eliab{H446} his eldest{H1419} brother{H251} heard{H8085}{(H8799)} when he spake{H1696}{(H8763)} unto the men{H582}; and Eliab's{H446} anger{H639} was kindled{H2734}{(H8799)} against David{H1732}, and he said{H559}{(H8799)}, Why camest thou down{H3381}{(H8804)} hither? and with whom hast thou left{H5203}{(H8804)} those{H2007} few{H4592} sheep{H6629} in the wilderness{H4057}? I know{H3045}{(H8804)} thy pride{H2087}, and the naughtiness{H7455} of thine heart{H3824}; for thou art come down{H3381}{(H8804)} that thou mightest see{H7200}{(H8800)} the battle{H4421}. 29 And David{H1732} said{H559}{(H8799)}, What have I now done{H6213}{(H8804)}? Is there not a cause{H1697}? 30 And he turned{H5437}{(H8735)} from him{H681} toward{H4136} another{H312}, and spake{H559}{(H8799)} after the same manner{H1697}: and the people{H5971} answered{H1697} him again{H7725}{(H8686)} after the former{H7223} manner{H1697}. 31 And when the words{H1697} were heard{H8085}{(H8735)} which David{H1732} spake{H1696}{(H8765)}, they rehearsed{H5046}{(H8686)} them before{H6440} Saul{H7586}: and he sent{H3947}{(H8799)} for him. 32 And David{H1732} said{H559}{(H8799)} to Saul{H7586}, Let no man's{H120} heart{H3820} fail{H5307}{(H8799)} because of him; thy servant{H5650} will go{H3212}{(H8799)} and fight{H3898}{(H8738)} with this Philistine{H6430}. 33 And Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)} to David{H1732}, Thou art not able{H3201}{(H8799)} to go{H3212}{(H8800)} against this Philistine{H6430} to fight{H3898}{(H8736)} with him: for thou art but a youth{H5288}, and he a man{H376} of war{H4421} from his youth{H5271}. 34 And David{H1732} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Saul{H7586}, Thy servant{H5650} kept{H7462}{(H8802)} his father's{H1} sheep{H6629}, and there came{H935}{(H8804)} a lion{H738}, and a bear{H1677}, and took{H5375}{(H8804)} a lamb{H7716}{(H8675)}{H2089} out of the flock{H5739}: 35 And I went out{H3318}{(H8804)} after{H310} him, and smote{H5221}{(H8689)} him, and delivered{H5337}{(H8689)} it out of his mouth{H6310}: and when he arose{H6965}{(H8799)} against me, I caught{H2388}{(H8689)} him by his beard{H2206}, and smote{H5221}{(H8689)} him, and slew{H4191}{(H8689)} him. 36 Thy servant{H5650} slew{H5221}{(H8689)} both the lion{H738} and the bear{H1677}: and this uncircumcised{H6189} Philistine{H6430} shall be as one{H259} of them, seeing he hath defied{H2778}{(H8765)} the armies{H4634} of the living{H2416} God{H430}. 37 David{H1732} said{H559}{(H8799)} moreover, The LORD{H3068} that delivered{H5337}{(H8689)} me out of the paw{H3027} of the lion{H738}, and out of the paw{H3027} of the bear{H1677}, he will deliver{H5337}{(H8686)} me out of the hand{H3027} of this Philistine{H6430}. And Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto David{H1732}, Go{H3212}{(H8798)}, and the LORD{H3068} be with thee. 38 And Saul{H7586} armed{H3847}{(H8686)} David{H1732} with his armour{H4055}, and he put{H5414}{(H8804)} an helmet{H6959} of brass{H5178} upon his head{H7218}; also he armed{H3847}{(H8686)} him with a coat of mail{H8302}. 39 And David{H1732} girded{H2296}{(H8799)} his sword{H2719} upon his armour{H4055}, and he assayed{H2974}{(H8686)} to go{H3212}{(H8800)}; for he had not proved{H5254}{(H8765)} it. And David{H1732} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Saul{H7586}, I cannot{H3201}{(H8799)} go{H3212}{(H8800)} with these; for I have not proved{H5254}{(H8765)} them. And David{H1732} put{H5493}{(H8686)} them off him. 40 And he took{H3947}{(H8799)} his staff{H4731} in his hand{H3027}, and chose{H977}{(H8799)} him five{H2568} smooth{H2512} stones{H68} out of the brook{H5158}, and put{H7760}{(H8799)} them in a shepherd's{H7462}{(H8802)} bag{H3627} which he had, even in a scrip{H3219}; and his sling{H7050} was in his hand{H3027}: and he drew near{H5066}{(H8799)} to the Philistine{H6430}. 41 And the Philistine{H6430} came{H3212}{(H8799)} on{H1980}{(H8802)} and drew near{H7131} unto David{H1732}; and the man{H376} that bare{H5375}{(H8802)} the shield{H6793} went before{H6440} him. 42 And when the Philistine{H6430} looked about{H5027}{(H8686)}, and saw{H7200}{(H8799)} David{H1732}, he disdained{H959}{(H8799)} him: for he was but a youth{H5288}, and ruddy{H132}, and of a fair{H3303} countenance{H4758}. 43 And the Philistine{H6430} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto David{H1732}, Am I a dog{H3611}, that thou comest{H935}{(H8802)} to me with staves{H4731}? And the Philistine{H6430} cursed{H7043}{(H8762)} David{H1732} by his gods{H430}. 44 And the Philistine{H6430} said{H559}{(H8799)} to David{H1732}, Come{H3212}{(H8798)} to me, and I will give{H5414}{(H8799)} thy flesh{H1320} unto the fowls{H5775} of the air{H8064}, and to the beasts{H929} of the field{H7704}. 45 Then said{H559}{(H8799)} David{H1732} to the Philistine{H6430}, Thou comest{H935}{(H8802)} to me with a sword{H2719}, and with a spear{H2595}, and with a shield{H3591}: but I come{H935}{(H8802)} to thee in the name{H8034} of the LORD{H3068} of hosts{H6635}, the God{H430} of the armies{H4634} of Israel{H3478}, whom thou hast defied{H2778}{(H8765)}. 46 This day{H3117} will the LORD{H3068} deliver{H5462}{(H8762)} thee into mine hand{H3027}; and I will smite{H5221}{(H8689)} thee, and take{H5493}{(H8689)} thine head{H7218} from thee; and I will give{H5414}{(H8804)} the carcases{H6297} of the host{H4264} of the Philistines{H6430} this day{H3117} unto the fowls{H5775} of the air{H8064}, and to the wild beasts{H2416} of the earth{H776}; that all the earth{H776} may know{H3045}{(H8799)} that there is{H3426} a God{H430} in Israel{H3478}. 47 And all this assembly{H6951} shall know{H3045}{(H8799)} that the LORD{H3068} saveth{H3467}{(H8686)} not with sword{H2719} and spear{H2595}: for the battle{H4421} is the LORD'S{H3068}, and he will give{H5414}{(H8804)} you into our hands{H3027}. 48 And it came to pass, when the Philistine{H6430} arose{H6965}{(H8804)}, and came{H3212}{(H8799)} and drew nigh{H7126}{(H8799)} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} David{H1732}, that David{H1732} hasted{H4116}{(H8762)}, and ran{H7323}{(H8799)} toward the army{H4634} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} the Philistine{H6430}. 49 And David{H1732} put{H7971}{(H8799)} his hand{H3027} in his bag{H3627}, and took{H3947}{(H8799)} thence a stone{H68}, and slang{H7049}{(H8762)} it, and smote{H5221}{(H8686)} the Philistine{H6430} in his forehead{H4696}, that the stone{H68} sunk{H2883}{(H8799)} into his forehead{H4696}; and he fell{H5307}{(H8799)} upon his face{H6440} to the earth{H776}. 50 So David{H1732} prevailed{H2388}{(H8799)} over{H4480} the Philistine{H6430} with a sling{H7050} and with a stone{H68}, and smote{H5221}{(H8686)} the Philistine{H6430}, and slew{H4191}{(H8686)} him; but there was no sword{H2719} in the hand{H3027} of David{H1732}. 51 Therefore David{H1732} ran{H7323}{(H8799)}, and stood{H5975}{(H8799)} upon the Philistine{H6430}, and took{H3947}{(H8799)} his sword{H2719}, and drew{H8025}{(H8799)} it out of the sheath{H8593} thereof, and slew{H4191}{(H8787)} him, and cut off{H3772}{(H8799)} his head{H7218} therewith. And when the Philistines{H6430} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} their champion{H1368} was dead{H4191}{(H8804)}, they fled{H5127}{(H8799)}. 52 And the men{H582} of Israel{H3478} and of Judah{H3063} arose{H6965}{(H8799)}, and shouted{H7321}{(H8686)}, and pursued{H7291}{(H8799)} the Philistines{H6430}, until thou come{H935}{(H8800)} to the valley{H1516}, and to the gates{H8179} of Ekron{H6138}. And the wounded{H2491} of the Philistines{H6430} fell down{H5307}{(H8799)} by the way{H1870} to Shaaraim{H8189}, even unto Gath{H1661}, and unto Ekron{H6138}. 53 And the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} returned{H7725}{(H8799)} from chasing{H1814}{(H8800)} after{H310} the Philistines{H6430}, and they spoiled{H8155}{(H8799)} their tents{H4264}. 54 And David{H1732} took{H3947}{(H8799)} the head{H7218} of the Philistine{H6430}, and brought{H935}{(H8686)} it to Jerusalem{H3389}; but he put{H7760}{(H8804)} his armour{H3627} in his tent{H168}. 55 And when Saul{H7586} saw{H7200}{(H8800)} David{H1732} go forth{H3318}{(H8802)} against{H7125}{(H8800)} the Philistine{H6430}, he said{H559}{(H8804)} unto Abner{H74}, the captain{H8269} of the host{H6635}, Abner{H74}, whose son{H1121} is this youth{H5288}? And Abner{H74} said{H559}{(H8799)}, As thy soul{H5315} liveth{H2416}, O king{H4428}, I cannot{H518} tell{H3045}{(H8804)}. 56 And the king{H4428} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Enquire{H7592}{(H8798)} thou whose son{H1121} the stripling{H5958} is. 57 And as David{H1732} returned{H7725}{(H8800)} from the slaughter{H5221}{(H8687)} of the Philistine{H6430}, Abner{H74} took{H3947}{(H8799)} him, and brought{H935}{(H8686)} him before{H6440} Saul{H7586} with the head{H7218} of the Philistine{H6430} in his hand{H3027}. 58 And Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)} to him, Whose son{H1121} art thou, thou young man{H5288}? And David{H1732} answered{H559}{(H8799)}, I am the son{H1121} of thy servant{H5650} Jesse{H3448} the Bethlehemite{H1022}.

And all that stood{H5975}{(H8802)} by him went out{H3318}{(H8799)} from him. 20 And Ehud{H164} came{H935}{(H8804)} unto him; and he was sitting{H3427}{(H8802)} in a summer{H4747} parlour{H5944}, which he had for himself alone. And Ehud{H164} said{H559}{(H8799)}, I have a message{H1697} from God{H430} unto thee. And he arose{H6965}{(H8799)} out of his seat{H3678}. 21 And Ehud{H164} put forth{H7971}{(H8799)} his left{H8040} hand{H3027}, and took{H3947}{(H8799)} the dagger{H2719} from his right{H3225} thigh{H3409}, and thrust{H8628}{(H8799)} it into his belly{H990}: 22 And the haft{H5325} also went in{H935}{(H8799)} after{H310} the blade{H3851}; and the fat{H2459} closed{H5462}{(H8799)} upon{H1157} the blade{H3851}, so that he could not draw{H8025}{(H8804)} the dagger{H2719} out of his belly{H990}; and the dirt{H6574} came out{H3318}{(H8799)}. 23 Then Ehud{H164} went forth{H3318}{(H8799)} through the porch{H4528}, and shut{H5462}{(H8799)} the doors{H1817} of the parlour{H5944} upon him, and locked{H5274}{(H8804)} them. 24 When he was gone out{H3318}{(H8804)}, his servants{H5650} came{H935}{(H8804)}; and when they saw{H7200}{(H8799)} that, behold, the doors{H1817} of the parlour{H5944} were locked{H5274}{(H8803)}, they said{H559}{(H8799)}, Surely he covereth{H5526}{(H8688)} his feet{H7272} in his summer{H4747} chamber{H2315}. 25 And they tarried{H2342}{(H8799)} till they were ashamed{H954}{(H8800)}: and, behold, he opened{H6605}{(H8802)} not the doors{H1817} of the parlour{H5944}; therefore they took{H3947}{(H8799)} a key{H4668}, and opened{H6605}{(H8799)} them: and, behold, their lord{H113} was fallen down{H5307}{(H8802)} dead{H4191}{(H8801)} on the earth{H776}. 26 And Ehud{H164} escaped{H4422}{(H8738)} while they tarried{H4102}{(H8699)}, and passed beyond{H5674}{(H8804)} the quarries{H6456}, and escaped{H4422}{(H8735)} unto Seirath{H8167}. 27 And it came to pass, when he was come{H935}{(H8800)}, that he blew{H8628}{(H8799)} a trumpet{H7782} in the mountain{H2022} of Ephraim{H669}, and the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} went down{H3381}{(H8799)} with him from the mount{H2022}, and he before{H6440} them. 28 And he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, Follow{H7291}{(H8798)} after{H310} me: for the LORD{H3068} hath delivered{H5414}{(H8804)} your enemies{H341}{(H8802)} the Moabites{H4124} into your hand{H3027}.
