1 Samuel 14:44-46

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴⁴ And Saul said: May God do so and so to me, and add still more: for dying thou shalt die, O Jonathan.

⁴⁵ And the people said to Saul: Shall Jonathan then die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? This must not be. 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 should not die.

⁴⁶ And Saul went back, and did not pursue after the Philistines: and the Philistines went to their own places.
