1 Samuel 14:40-43

40Then he saidH559 to allH3605 IsraelH3478, “You shall be on oneH259 sideH5676, and I and my sonH1121 JonathanH3083 will be on the otherH259 sideH5676.” And the peopleH5971 saidH559 to SaulH7586, “DoH6213 whatH2896 seems goodH2896 1to you.” 41Therefore, SaulH7586 saidH559 to the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, “2GiveH3051 a 3perfectH8549 lot.” And JonathanH3083 and SaulH7586 were selectedH3920 byH3920 lotH3920, but the peopleH5971 4were exoneratedH3318. 42Then SaulH7586 saidH559, “CastH5307 lots betweenH996 me and my sonH1121 JonathanH3083.” And JonathanH3083 was selectedH3920 byH3920 lotH3920.

43So SaulH7586 saidH559 to JonathanH3083, “5TellH5046 me whatH4100 you have doneH6213.” And JonathanH3083 toldH5046 him, and saidH559, “6I did indeedH2938 tasteH2938 a littleH4592 honeyH1706 with the endH7097 of the staffH4294 that was in my handH3027. HereH2009 I am, I must dieH4191!”
