1 Samuel 14:42

And Saul said, &c. Again the Sept. text is fuller. "And Saul said, Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son: whomsoever the Lord taketh by lot, let him die. And the people said unto Saul, This thing shall not be. And Saul prevailed over the people, and they cast lots between him and Jonathan his son, and Jonathan was taken." The omission in the Heb. text may be accounted for by homoeoteleuton(1 Samuel 10:1. note), the words for my sonand his sonbeing almost identical.
