“He has given”
In context — 1 Samuel 14:45
But the people said to Saul, “Must Jonathan die—he who has brought about this great deliverance in Israel? Never! As the LORD lives, not even one hair of his head will drop to the ground, for today he acted with God .” So the people rescued Jonathan, and he did not die.
