  • 1 Sam 14:24-46 : 24 And the men{H376} of Israel{H3478} were distressed{H5065}{(H8738)} that day{H3117}: for Saul{H7586} had adjured{H422}{(H8686)} the people{H5971}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Cursed{H779}{(H8803)} be the man{H376} that eateth{H398}{(H8799)} any food{H3899} until evening{H6153}, that I may be avenged{H5358}{(H8738)} on mine enemies{H341}{(H8802)}. So none of the people{H5971} tasted{H2938}{(H8804)} any food{H3899}. 25 And all they of the land{H776} came{H935}{(H8804)} to a wood{H3293}; and there was honey{H1706} upon{H6440} the ground{H7704}. 26 And when the people{H5971} were come{H935}{(H8799)} into the wood{H3293}, behold, the honey{H1706} dropped{H1982}; but no man put{H5381}{(H8688)} his hand{H3027} to his mouth{H6310}: for the people{H5971} feared{H3372}{(H8804)} the oath{H7621}. 27 But Jonathan{H3129} heard{H8085}{(H8804)} not when his father{H1} charged{H7650} the people{H5971} with the oath{H7650}{(H8687)}: wherefore he put forth{H7971}{(H8799)} the end{H7097} of the rod{H4294} that was in his hand{H3027}, and dipped{H2881}{(H8799)} it in an honeycomb{H3295}{H1706}, and put{H7725}{(H8686)} his hand{H3027} to his mouth{H6310}; and his eyes{H5869} were enlightened{H215}{(H8799)}. 28 Then answered{H6030}{(H8799)} one{H376} of the people{H5971}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Thy father{H1} straitly{H7650}{(H8687)} charged{H7650} the people{H5971} with an oath{H7650}{(H8689)}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Cursed{H779}{(H8803)} be the man{H376} that eateth{H398}{(H8799)} any food{H3899} this day{H3117}. And the people{H5971} were faint{H5774}{(H8799)}. 29 Then said{H559}{(H8799)} Jonathan{H3129}, My father{H1} hath troubled{H5916}{(H8804)} the land{H776}: see{H7200}{(H8798)}, I pray you, how mine eyes{H5869} have been enlightened{H215}{(H8804)}, because I tasted{H2938}{(H8804)} a little{H4592} of this honey{H1706}. 30 How much more{H637}, if haply{H3863} the people{H5971} had eaten{H398}{(H8804)} freely{H398}{(H8800)} to day{H3117} of the spoil{H7998} of their enemies{H341}{(H8802)} which they found{H4672}{(H8804)}? for had there not been now a much greater{H7235}{(H8804)} slaughter{H4347} among the Philistines{H6430}? 31 And they smote{H5221}{(H8686)} the Philistines{H6430} that day{H3117} from Michmash{H4363} to Aijalon{H357}: and the people{H5971} were very{H3966} faint{H5774}{(H8799)}. 32 And the people{H5971} flew{H5860}{(H8799)}{H6213}{(H8799)} upon the spoil{H7998}, and took{H3947}{(H8799)} sheep{H6629}, and oxen{H1241}, and calves{H1121}, and slew{H7819}{(H8799)} them on the ground{H776}: and the people{H5971} did eat{H398}{(H8799)} them with the blood{H1818}. 33 Then they told{H5046}{(H8686)} Saul{H7586}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Behold, the people{H5971} sin{H2398}{(H8802)} against the LORD{H3068}, in that they eat{H398}{(H8800)} with the blood{H1818}. And he said{H559}{(H8799)}, Ye have transgressed{H898}{(H8804)}: roll{H1556}{(H8798)} a great{H1419} stone{H68} unto me this day{H3117}. 34 And Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Disperse{H6327}{(H8798)} yourselves among the people{H5971}, and say{H559}{(H8804)} unto them, Bring me hither{H5066}{(H8685)} every man{H376} his ox{H7794}, and every man{H376} his sheep{H7716}, and slay{H7819}{(H8804)} them here, and eat{H398}{(H8804)}; and sin{H2398}{(H8799)} not against the LORD{H3068} in eating{H398}{(H8800)} with the blood{H1818}. And all the people{H5971} brought{H5066}{(H8686)} every man{H376} his ox{H7794} with him{H3027} that night{H3915}, and slew{H7819}{(H8799)} them there. 35 And Saul{H7586} built{H1129}{(H8799)} an altar{H4196} unto the LORD{H3068}: the same was the first{H2490}{(H8689)} altar{H4196} that he built{H1129}{(H8800)} unto the LORD{H3068}. 36 And Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Let us go down{H3381}{(H8799)} after{H310} the Philistines{H6430} by night{H3915}, and spoil{H962}{(H8799)} them until the morning{H1242} light{H216}, and let us not leave{H7604}{(H8686)} a man{H376} of them. And they said{H559}{(H8799)}, Do{H6213}{(H8798)} whatsoever seemeth{H5869} good{H2896} unto thee. Then said{H559}{(H8799)} the priest{H3548}, Let us draw near{H7126}{(H8799)} hither{H1988} unto God{H430}. 37 And Saul{H7586} asked{H7592}{(H8799)} counsel of God{H430}, Shall I go down{H3381}{(H8799)} after{H310} the Philistines{H6430}? wilt thou deliver{H5414}{(H8799)} them into the hand{H3027} of Israel{H3478}? But he answered{H6030}{(H8804)} him not that day{H3117}. 38 And Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Draw ye near{H5066}{(H8798)} hither{H1988}, all the chief{H6438} of the people{H5971}: and know{H3045}{(H8798)} and see{H7200}{(H8798)} wherein{H4100} this sin{H2403} hath been this day{H3117}. 39 For, as the LORD{H3068} liveth{H2416}, which saveth{H3467}{(H8688)} Israel{H3478}, though it be{H3426} in Jonathan{H3129} my son{H1121}, he shall surely{H4191}{(H8800)} die{H4191}{(H8799)}. But there was not a man among all the people{H5971} that answered{H6030}{(H8802)} him. 40 Then said{H559}{(H8799)} he unto all Israel{H3478}, Be ye on one{H259} side{H5676}, and I and Jonathan{H3129} my son{H1121} will be on the other{H259} side{H5676}. And the people{H5971} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Saul{H7586}, Do{H6213}{(H8798)} what seemeth{H5869} good{H2896} unto thee. 41 Therefore Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478}, Give{H3051}{(H8798)} a perfect{H8549} lot. And Saul{H7586} and Jonathan{H3129} were taken{H3920}{(H8735)}: but the people{H5971} escaped{H3318}{(H8804)}. 42 And Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Cast{H5307}{(H8685)} lots between me and Jonathan{H3129} my son{H1121}. And Jonathan{H3129} was taken{H3920}{(H8735)}. 43 Then Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)} to Jonathan{H3129}, Tell{H5046}{(H8685)} me what thou hast done{H6213}{(H8804)}. And Jonathan{H3129} told{H5046}{(H8686)} him, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, I did but{H2938}{(H8800)} taste{H2938}{(H8804)} a little{H4592} honey{H1706} with the end{H7097} of the rod{H4294} that was in mine hand{H3027}, and, lo{H2009}, I must die{H4191}{(H8799)}. 44 And Saul{H7586} answered{H559}{(H8799)}, God{H430} do so{H6213}{(H8799)} and more also{H3254}{(H8686)}: for thou shalt surely{H4191}{(H8800)} die{H4191}{(H8799)}, Jonathan{H3129}. 45 And the people{H5971} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Saul{H7586}, Shall Jonathan{H3129} die{H4191}{(H8799)}, who hath wrought{H6213}{(H8804)} this great{H1419} salvation{H3444} in Israel{H3478}? God forbid{H2486}: as the LORD{H3068} liveth{H2416}, there shall not one hair{H8185} of his head{H7218} fall{H5307}{(H8799)} to the ground{H776}; for he hath wrought{H6213}{(H8804)} with God{H430} this day{H3117}. So the people{H5971} rescued{H6299}{(H8799)} Jonathan{H3129}, that he died{H4191}{(H8804)} not. 46 Then Saul{H7586} went up{H5927}{(H8799)} from following{H310} the Philistines{H6430}: and the Philistines{H6430} went{H1980}{(H8804)} to their own place{H4725}.
