1 Samuel 14:14-18 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

14. Before they had gone thirty metres, they had killed about twenty Philistines.

15. The whole Philistine army panicked—those in camp, those on guard duty, those in the fields, and those on raiding patrols. All of them were afraid and confused. Then God sent an earthquake, and the ground began to tremble.

16. Saul's lookouts at Geba saw that the Philistine army was running in every direction, like melted wax.

17. Saul told his officers, “Call the roll and find out who left our camp.” When they had finished, they found out that Jonathan and the soldier who carried his weapons were missing.

18. At that time, Ahijah was serving as priest for the army of Israel, and Saul told him, “Come over here! Let's ask God what we should do.”
