- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Vivit Dominus salvator Israël, quia si per Jonathan filium meum factum est, absque retractione morietur. Ad quod nullus contradixit ei de omni populo.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- ὅτι ζῇ Κύριος ὁ σώσας τὸν Ἰσραήλ, ὅτι ἐὰν ἀποκριθῇ κατὰ Ἰωναθὰν τοῦ υἱοῦ μου, θανάτῳ ἀποθανεῖται. καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ ἀποκρινόμενος ἐκ παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- כִּ֣י חַי יְהוָ֗ה הַמּוֹשִׁ֨יעַ֙ אֶת יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל כִּ֧י אִם יֶשְׁנ֛וֹ בְּיוֹנָתָ֥ן בְּנִ֖י כִּ֣י מ֣וֹת יָמ֑וּת וְאֵ֥ין עֹנֵ֖הוּ מִכָּל הָעָֽם
Haydock's commentary
Gainsayed him, out of respect. Saul gives another proof of his precipitation, in swearing; and the people, by this silence, acquiesce, not suspecting that Jonathan could have offended in what he had done. (Calmet)
One of them, at least, knew that he had transgressed the order of his father, ver. 28. But extreme necessity might plead his excuse. (Haydock)
They might be silent through fear, or reverence, without giving their consent. (Salien)
