1 Samuel 14:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 So they both showed themselves unto the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said, See, the Hebrews come out of the [a]holes wherein they had hid themselves.
12 And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armor bearer, and said, Come up to us: for we will show you a thing. Then Jonathan said unto his armor bearer, Come up after me: for the Lord hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.
13 So Jonathan went up upon [b]his hands and upon his feet, and his armor bearer after him: and some fell before Jonathan, and his armor bearer slew others after him.

New International Version
11 So both of them showed themselves to the Philistine outpost. “Look!” said the Philistines. “The Hebrews(A) are crawling out of the holes they were hiding(B) in.” 12 The men of the outpost shouted to Jonathan and his armor-bearer, “Come up to us and we’ll teach you a lesson.(C)”
So Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, “Climb up after me; the Lord has given them into the hand(D) of Israel.”
13 Jonathan climbed up, using his hands and feet, with his armor-bearer right behind him. The Philistines fell before Jonathan, and his armor-bearer followed and killed behind him.
