1 Samuel 14:47 in Context — 1 Samuel 14

45 Le peuple dit à Saül: Quoi! Jonathan mourrait, lui qui a opéré cette grande délivrance en Israël! Loin de là! L’Éternel est vivant! Il ne tombera pas à terre un cheveu de sa tête, car c’est avec Dieu qu’il a agi dans cette journée. Ainsi le peuple sauva Jonathan, et il ne mourut point.

46 Saül cessa de poursuivre les Philistins, et les Philistins s’en allèrent chez eux.

47 Après que Saül eut pris possession de la royauté sur Israël, il fit de tous côtés la guerre à tous ses ennemis, à Moab, aux enfants d’Ammon, à Édom, aux rois de Tsoba, et aux Philistins; et partout où il se tournait, il était vainqueur.

48 Il manifesta sa force, battit Amalek, et délivra Israël de la main de ceux qui le pillaient.

49 Les fils de Saül étaient Jonathan, Jischvi et Malkischua. Ses deux filles s’appelaient: l’aînée Mérab, et la plus jeune Mical.
