1 Samuel 14:38-40

Tree of Life Version

³⁸ Then Saul said, “Draw near here, all you chiefs of the people; investigate and see how this sin was committed today. ³⁹ For as Adonai—Israel’s deliverer—lives, even if it was by my son Jonathan, he will surely die.” But not one among all the people answered him.

⁴⁰ So he said to all Israel, “You stand on one side, and I and my son Jonathan will stand on the other side.”

“Do what seems good in your eyes,” said the people to Saul.
