1 Samuel 14:26-28
1599 Geneva Bible
26 And the people came into the wood, and behold, the honey dropped, and no man moved his hand to his mouth: for the people feared the [a]oath.
27 But Jonathan heard not when his father charged the people with the oath: wherefore he put forth the end of the rod that was in his hand, and dipped it in an honey comb, and put his hand to his mouth, and his [b]eyes received sight.
28 Then answered one of the people, and said, Thy father made the people to swear, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth sustenance this day: and the people were [c]faint.
