1 Samuel 14:37 Context
35And Saul built an altar vnto the Lord: the same was the first altar that he built vnto the Lord. 36¶ And Saul saide, Let vs goe downe after the Philistines by night, and spoile them vntil the morning light, and let vs not leaue a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoeuer seemeth good vnto thee. Then said the priest, Let vs draw neere hither vnto God. 37And Saul asked counsell of God, Shall I goe downe after the Philistines? Wilt thou deliuer them into the hand of Israel? But he answered him not that day. 38And Saul said, Draw yee neere hither all the chiefe of the people: and know and see, wherein this sinne hath beene this day. 39For as the Lord liueth, which saueth Israel, though it bee in Ionathan my sonne, he shall surely die: But there was not a man among all the people that answered him.
