1 Samuel 14:8-13

Complete Jewish Bible

⁸ Y’honatan said, “Here, we’ll cross over to those men and let them know we’re there. ⁹ If they say, ‘Wait till we come to you,’ we’ll stand still where we are and not go up to them. ¹⁰ But if they say, ‘Come up to us,’ we’ll go on up; and that will be the sign that Adonai has given us victory over them.”

¹¹ So both of them let their presence be known to the garrison of the P’lishtim; and the P’lishtim said, “Look, some Hebrews coming out of the holes they’ve been hiding in!” ¹² Then the men of the garrison said to Y’honatan and his armor-bearer, “Come up to us; we want to show you something.” Y’honatan told his armor-bearer, “Come on up after me, for Adonai has handed them over to Isra’el.” ¹³ Y’honatan climbed up, using his hands as well as his feet, with his armor-bearer behind him. The P’lishtim fell before Y’honatan, and his armor-bearer following him finished them off.
