The logical suspect would be a bad battery but we need more details or observations to interpret. What happens to the brightness of the interior lights or head lights when you try to crank the engine? Measure the battery voltage with the engine off and with it running if you can get it started with a jump-start. Holler back with those numbers.

Make sure your battery terminals are clean and tight and make sure your battery is fully charged and have it load tested. Testing a battery that's not fully charged will almost always fail a load test.
