12 Then the troops in the fort yelled to Jonathan and his armor-bearer, "Come on up! We’ll teach you a lesson!"So Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, "Follow me, because the Lord has handed them over to Israel!"
13 So Jonathan scrambled up on his hands and feet with his armor-bearer right behind him. The Philistines fell before Jonathan. His armor-bearer, coming behind him, would then finish them off.
14 In the first attack, Jonathan and his armor-bearer killed about twenty men in an area of about half an acre.
15 Panic broke out in the camp, in the field, and among all the troops. Even those in the fort and the raiders shook with fear. The very ground shook! It was a terror from God.
16 Now Saul’s lookouts at Gibeah in Benjamin saw the Philistine camp running all over the place.
17 Saul said to the troops with him, "Take a count and see who is missing." So they counted, and Jonathan and his armor-bearer were gone.
18 Saul said to Ahijah, "Bring the priestly vest!" because at that time, Ahijah wore the priestly vest in Israel’s presence.
