1 Samuel 14:39 in Context — 1 Samuel 14
37 Et Saül consulta Dieu: Descendrai-je après les Philistins? Les livreras-tu entre les mains d’Israël? Mais en ce moment il ne lui donna point de réponse.
38 Saül dit: Approchez ici, vous tous chefs du peuple; recherchez et voyez comment ce péché a été commis aujourd’hui.
39 Car l’Éternel, le libérateur d’Israël, est vivant! Lors même que Jonathan, mon fils, en serait l’auteur, il mourrait. Et dans tout le peuple personne ne lui répondit.
40 Il dit à tout Israël: Mettez-vous d’un côté; et moi et Jonathan, mon fils, nous serons de l’autre. Et le peuple dit à Saül: Fais ce qui te semblera bon.
41 Saül dit à l’Éternel: Dieu d’Israël! Fais connaître la vérité. Jonathan et Saül furent désignés, et le peuple fut libéré.
