1 Samuel 14:23-25

EasyEnglish Bible

²³ In that way, the Lord saved Israel's people on that day. The battle moved all the way to Beth Aven and beyond it.

After the battle

²⁴ The Israelite soldiers became very weak and hungry that day. Saul had told his army to agree to this promise: ‘Nobody may eat any food before this evening. By then I will have won against my enemies. If anyone eats anything before then, may God curse him!’ So no soldier in Saul's army ate any food.

²⁵ Saul's army went into a forest. There was honey on the ground.
