1 Samuel 14:32-34

Living Bible

³² That evening^[a] they flew upon the battle loot and butchered the sheep, oxen, and calves, and ate the raw, bloody meat. ³³ Someone reported to Saul what was happening, that the people were sinning against the Lord by eating blood.

“That is very wrong,” Saul said. “Roll a great stone over here, ³⁴ and go out among the troops and tell them to bring the oxen and sheep here to kill and drain them, and not to sin against the Lord by eating the blood.” So that is what they did.
