1 Samuel 14:26-28

Modern English Version

²⁶ When the people came into the forest there was flowing honey. But no man put his hand to his mouth, because the people feared the oath. ²⁷ But Jonathan had not heard when his father made the people swear. Therefore he put forward the end of the rod that was in his hand, and dipped it in the honeycomb. Then he put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were brightened. ²⁸ Then one of the people answered, and said, “Your father surely made the people swear, saying, ‘Cursed is the man that eats any food this day.’ ” And the people were weary.
