8 Jonathan said, "Come on, then. We'll go across the pass toward the Philistines and let them see us.
9 Suppose they say to us, 'Wait there until we come to you.' Then we'll stay where we are. We won't go up to them.
10 But suppose they say, 'Come up to us.' Then we'll climb up. That will show us that the Lord has handed them over to us."
11 So Jonathan and the young man let the soldiers in the Philistine camp see them. "Look!" said the Philistines. "Some of the Hebrews are crawling out of the holes they were hiding in."
12 The men in the Philistine camp shouted to Jonathan and the young man who was carrying his armor. They said, "Come on up here. We'll teach you a thing or two." So Jonathan said to the young man, "Climb up after me. The Lord has handed them over to Israel."
13 Using his hands and feet, Jonathan climbed up. The young man was right behind him. Jonathan struck the Philistines down. The young man followed him and killed those who were still alive.
14 In that first attack, Jonathan and the young man killed about 20 men. They did it in an area of about half an acre.
