Then Sha’ul said to יהוה Elohim of Yisra’ĕ
The lot is cast into the lap, But every decision by it is from יהוה.
The lot settles disputes, And separates between the mighty.
And they said to each other, “Come, and let us cast lots, so that we know for whose sake this evil has come upon us.” So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Yonah.
And praying they said, “You, יהוה, who know the hearts of all, show which one of these two You have chosen
And they cast their lots, and the lot fell on Mattithyahu. And he was numbered with the eleven emissaries.
And he said to all Yisra’ĕ
And Sha’ul said, “Cast lots between my son Yonathan and me.” And Yonathan was taken.
