1 Samuel 14:40-42

International Children’s Bible

⁴⁰ Then Saul said to all the Israelites, “You stand on this side. I and my son Jonathan will stand on the other side.”

The men answered, “Do whatever you think is best.”

⁴¹ Then Saul prayed to the Lord, the God of Israel, “Give me the right answer.”

And Saul and Jonathan were chosen by throwing lots. The other men went free. ⁴² Saul said, “Throw the lot. It will show if it is I or Jonathan my son who is guilty.” And Jonathan was chosen.
