1 Samuel 14:1-3

EasyEnglish Bible

14 A young man carried the armour of Saul's son Jonathan. One day, Jonathan said to the young man, ‘Come with me. We will go over to the place where the Philistine soldiers have their camp.’ But Jonathan did not tell his father what he was doing.

² Saul was staying near Gibeah. He sat under a big fruit tree at Migron. There were about 600 soldiers with him. ³ The priest Ahijah was with Saul. Ahijah wore the priest's ephod. Ahijah was the son of Ichabod's brother, Ahitub. Ahitub was the son of Phinehas and the grandson of Eli. Eli was the priest who had served the Lord in Shiloh.^[a]

Nobody knew that Jonathan had left.
