1 Samuel 14:26
14:26 When the army entered the forest, they saw 1 the honey flowing, but no one ate any of it, 2 for the army was afraid of the oath.
1 Samuel 14:32
14:32 So the army rushed greedily on 3 the 4 plunder, confiscating sheep, cattle, and calves. They slaughtered them right on the ground, and the army ate them blood and all.
1 tn Heb “and the army entered the forest, and look!”
2 tn Heb “and there was no one putting his hand to his mouth.”
3 tc The translation follows the Qere and many medieval Hebrew mss in reading “and they rushed greedily upon,” rather than the Kethib, “and they did.”
4 tc The translation reads with the Qere and many medieval Hebrew mss הַשָּׁלָל (hashalal, “the spoil”) rather than following the Kethib reading, שָׁלָל (shalal, “spoil”).
