1 Samuel 14:24-30

And the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
were distressed
<05065> (8738)
that day
<03117>_:
for Saul
<07586>
had adjured
<0422> (8686)
the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Cursed
<0779> (8803)
[be] the man
<0376>
that eateth
<0398> (8799)
[any] food
<03899>
until evening
<06153>_,
that I may be avenged
<05358> (8738)
on mine enemies
<0341> (8802)_.
So none of the people
<05971>
tasted
<02938> (8804)
[any] food
<03899>_.
And all [they of] the land
<0776>
came
<0935> (8804)
to a wood
<03293>_;
and there was honey
<01706>
upon
<06440>
the ground
<07704>_.
And when the people
<05971>
were come
<0935> (8799)
into the wood
<03293>_,
behold, the honey
<01706>
dropped
<01982>_;
but no man put
<05381> (8688)
his hand
<03027>
to his mouth
<06310>_:
for the people
<05971>
feared
<03372> (8804)
the oath
<07621>_.
But Jonathan
<03129>
heard
<08085> (8804)
not when his father
<01>
charged
<07650> (0)
the people
<05971>
with the oath
<07650> (8687)_:
wherefore he put forth
<07971> (8799)
the end
<07097>
of the rod
<04294>
that [was] in his hand
<03027>_,
and dipped
<02881> (8799)
it in an honeycomb
<03295> <01706>_,
and put
<07725> (8686)
his hand
<03027>
to his mouth
<06310>_;
and his eyes
<05869>
were enlightened
<0215> (8799)_.
Then answered
<06030> (8799)
one
<0376>
of the people
<05971>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thy father
<01>
straitly
<07650> (8687)
charged
<07650> (0)
the people
<05971>
with an oath
<07650> (8689)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Cursed
<0779> (8803)
[be] the man
<0376>
that eateth
<0398> (8799)
[any] food
<03899>
this day
<03117>_.
And the people
<05971>
were faint
<05774> (8799)_.
{faint: or, weary}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Jonathan
<03129>_,
My father
<01>
hath troubled
<05916> (8804)
the land
<0776>_:
see
<07200> (8798)_,
I pray you, how mine eyes
<05869>
have been enlightened
<0215> (8804)_,
because I tasted
<02938> (8804)
a little
<04592>
of this honey
<01706>_.
How much more
<0637>_,
if haply
<03863>
the people
<05971>
had eaten
<0398> (8804)
freely
<0398> (8800)
to day
<03117>
of the spoil
<07998>
of their enemies
<0341> (8802)
which they found
<04672> (8804)_?
for had there not been now a much greater
<07235> (8804)
slaughter
<04347>
among the Philistines
<06430>_?
