If the battery is three years old or older, your Jeep won't start and nothing happens at all when you turn the key then more than likely you have a bad battery. Almost any place that you can buy a new battery from will be happy to test it for you and some places will check your charging system for you for a very nominal fee.
If you're hardheaded like I am and have a battery charger you can try putting a a charge to it for several hours just in case its become drained for some reason (interior lights left on overnight for example) and it also could be just a loose connection at the battery terminals.
But, if you try charging it for several hours and you jiggle the battery cables at the battery and they seem tight and the battery is still dead, go get a new one.
Good luck to you.
