| 45. Formal Translation But the people said to Saul, “Must Jonathan die—he who has brought about this great deliverance in Israel? Never! As the LORD {Yahweh, Covenant Enforcer} lives, not even one hair of his head will drop to the ground, for today he acted with God {Elohim, divine empowerment}.” So the people rescued Jonathan, and he did not die. |
| 45. Dynamic Translation The people answered Saul, “Should Jonathan be put to death when he has achieved this great victory for Israel? Absolutely not! As surely as the LORD {Yahweh, Promise Keeper} lives, not a single hair of his head will fall to the ground, because today he acted with God {Elohim, strength source}.” So the people saved Jonathan, and he was not put to death. |
