1 Samuel 14:24-28

24And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 were distressedH5065 that dayH3117: for SaulH7586 had solemnly chargedH422 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, CursedH779 be the manH376 that eatethH398 any foodH3899 until eveningH6153, that I may be avengedH5358 on my enemiesH341. So none of the peopleH5971 tastedH2938 any foodH3899. 25And all they of the landH776 cameH935 to a forestH3293; and there was honeyH1706 uponH6440 the groundH7704. 26And when the peopleH5971 had comeH935 into the forestH3293, behold, the honeyH1706 flowedH1982; but no man putH5381 his handH3027 to his mouthH6310: for the peopleH5971 fearedH3372 the oathH7621. 27But JonathanH3129 heardH8085 not when his fatherH1 chargedH7650 the peopleH5971 with the oathH7650: therefore he put forthH7971 the endH7097 of the rodH4294 that was in his handH3027, and dippedH2881 it in an honeycombH3295H1706, and putH7725 his handH3027 to his mouthH6310; and his eyesH5869 were enlightenedH215. 28Then answeredH6030 oneH376 of the peopleH5971, and saidH559, Thy fatherH1 strictlyH7650 chargedH7650 the peopleH5971 with an oathH7650, sayingH559, CursedH779 be the manH376 that eatethH398 any foodH3899 this dayH3117. And the peopleH5971 were faintH5774.1
