Verse 11 is found in chapter 14 of 1 Samuel. Jonathan and his armor-bearer attack the Philistines and confusion spreads through the enemy camp. The text attributes the victory to the Lord, who creates terror among the Philistines and enables Israel to advance. Saul initially does not know the cause of the disorder, while Jonathan has acted confidently. The scene shows that effective military leadership can arise from someone who recognizes that the battle belongs to the Lord. It also contrasts Jonathan’s initiative with Saul’s hesitation.

Da sie nun der Philister Wache beide ins Gesicht kamen, sprachen die Philister: Siehe, die Hebräer sind aus ihren Löchern gegangen, darin sie sich verkrochen hatten.
Mostráronse pues ambos a la guarnición de los Filisteos, y los Filisteos dijeron: He aquí los Hebreos, que salen de las cavernas en que se habían escondido.
Los dos se dejaron ver por la guarnición filistea, y los filisteos dijeron: «¡Miren, los hebreos salen de los agujeros donde se habían escondido!».
Ils se montrèrent tous deux au poste des Philistins, et les Philistins dirent: Voici les Hébreux qui sortent des trous où ils se sont cachés.
Così amendue si mostrarono alla guernigione de’ Filistei; e i Filistei dissero: Ecco, gli Ebrei escono fuor delle grotte, nelle quali si erano nascosti.
Revelando-se eles à guarnição dos filisteus, disseram os filisteus: Eis que já os hebreus saíram das cavernas em que se tinham escondido.
