1 Samuel 14:35-37

New Century Version

³⁵ Then Saul built an altar to the Lord. It was the first altar he had built to the Lord.

³⁶ Saul said, “Let’s go after the Philistines tonight and rob them. We won’t let any of them live!”

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

But the priest said, “Let’s ask God.”

³⁷ So Saul asked God, “Should I chase the Philistines? Will you let us defeat them?” But God did not answer Saul at that time.
