Revised Version 1895
1 Samuel 14:24-28
24And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 were distressed that dayH3117: but SaulH7586 adjured the peopleH5971, sayingH559, CursedH779 be the manH376 that eateth anyH3605 foodH3899 untilH5704 it be eveningH6153, and I be avengedH5358 on mine enemiesH341. SoH3808 noneH3808 of the peopleH5971 tastedH2938 foodH3899.
25And allH3605 the peopleH776 cameH935 intoH935 the forestH3293; and there was honeyH1706 uponH5921 the groundH776.
26And when the peopleH5971 were comeH935 unto the forestH3293, beholdH2009, the honeyH1706 dropped: but noH369 manH369 putH935 his handH3027 to his mouthH6310; for the peopleH5971 fearedH3372 the oathH7621.
27But JonathanH3129 heardH8085 notH3808 when his fatherH1 charged the peopleH5971 with the oathH7650: wherefore he putH7971 forthH7971 the endH7097 of the rodH4294 that was in his handH3027, and dippedH2881 it in the honeycombH3295, and putH7971 his handH3027 to his mouthH6310; and his eyesH5869 were enlightened.
28Then answeredH559 one of the peopleH5971, and saidH559, Thy fatherH1 straitly charged the peopleH5971 with an oathH7650, sayingH559, CursedH779 be the manH376 that eateth foodH3899 this dayH3117. And the peopleH5971 were faint.
