1 Samuel 14:4-9 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

4. In the pass of Michmash, which Jonathan had to go through to get over to the Philistine camp, there were two large jagged rocks, one on each side of the pass: one was called Bozez and the other Seneh.

5. One was on the north side of the pass, facing Michmash, and the other was on the south side, facing Geba.

6. Jonathan said to the young man, “Let's cross over to the camp of those heathen Philistines. Maybe the Lord will help us; if he does, nothing can keep him from giving us the victory, no matter how few of us there are.”

7. The young man answered, “Whatever you want to do, I'm with you.”

8. “All right,” Jonathan said. “We will go across and let the Philistines see us.

9. If they tell us to wait for them to come to us, then we will stay where we are.
