1 Samuel 14:36-46

³⁶ And Saul saith, 'Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and we prey upon them till the light of the morning, and leave not a man of them.' And they say, 'All that is good in thine eyes do.' And the priest saith, 'Let us draw near hither unto God.' ³⁷ And Saul asketh of God, 'Do I go down after the Philistines? dost Thou give them into the hand of Israel?' and He hath not answered him on that day. ³⁸ And Saul saith, 'Draw ye nigh hither all, the chiefs of the people, and know and see in what this sin hath been to-day; ³⁹ for, Jehovah liveth, who is saving Israel: surely if it be in Jonathan my son, surely he doth certainly die;' and none is answering him out of all the people. ⁴⁰ And he saith unto all Israel, 'Ye—ye are on one side, and I and Jonathan my son are on another side;' and the people say unto Saul, 'That which is good in thine eyes do.' ⁴¹ And Saul saith unto Jehovah, God of Israel, 'Give perfection;' and Jonathan and Saul are captured, and the people went out. ⁴² And Saul saith, 'Cast between me and Jonathan my son;' and Jonathan is captured. ⁴³ And Saul saith unto Jonathan, 'Declare to me, what hast thou done?' and Jonathan declareth to him, and saith, 'I certainly tasted with the end of the rod that 'is' in my hand a little honey; lo, I die!' ⁴⁴ And Saul saith, 'Thus doth God do, and thus doth He add, for thou dost certainly die, Jonathan.' ⁴⁵ And the people say unto Saul, 'Doth Jonathan die who wrought this great salvation in Israel?—a profanation! Jehovah liveth, if there falleth from the hair of his head to the earth, for with God he hath wrought this day;' and the people rescue Jonathan, and he hath not died. ⁴⁶ And Saul goeth up from after the Philistines, and the Philistines have gone to their place;
