Parallel

1 Samuel 14:41

Brenton's English Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible

And Saul said, O Lord God of Israel, why hast thou not answered thy servant this day? [is] the iniquity in me, or in Jonathan my son? Lord God of Israel, give clear [manifestations]; and if [the lot] should declare this, give, I pray thee, to thy people Israel, give, I pray, holiness. And Jonathan and Saul are taken, and the people escaped.
So Saul said to the LORD, the God of Israel, “Why have You not answered Your servant this day? If the fault is with me or my son Jonathan, respond with Urim, but if the fault is with the men of Israel, respond with Thummim (note: LXX and Vulgate; MT contains only the short quotation, “Give a perfect (lot).”).” And Jonathan and Saul were selected, but the people were cleared of the charge.
