*
And the men of Israel were distressed that day :
for Saul had adjured the people ,
saying ,
Cursed be the man that eateth any food until evening ,
that I may be avenged on mine enemies .
So none of the people tasted any food .
*
And all they of the land came to a wood ya #
ar #;
and there was honey upon the ground .
*
And when the people were come into the wood ya #
ar #,
behold ,
the honey dropped ;
but no man put his hand to his mouth :
for the people feared the oath sh @
buw #
ah #.
*
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 honeycomb #
H1706 ,
and put his hand to his mouth ;
and his eyes were enlightened .
*
Then answered one of the people ,
and said ,
Thy father straitly charged #
the people with an oath ,
saying ,
Cursed be the man that eateth any food this day .
And the people were faint .
