Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of the boles where they had hid themselves. 12 And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armour-bearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said unto his armour-bearer, Come up after me; for the LORD hath delivered them into the hand of Israel, 13 And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands & upon his feet,& his armour bearer after him: and they fell before Jonathan. and his armour-bearer siew after him.

And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armour-bearer were not there. 18 And Saul said unto Abiah, Bring hither the ark of God: (for ye ark of God was at that time with the children of Israel.) 19 And it came to pass, while Saul talked unto the priest, that the noise that was in the host of the Philistines went on and increased: and Saul said unto the priest, Withdraw thine hand. e furrow of an acre. a 2 Ki.7.6,7.

So none of the people tasted any food. 25 And all they of ye land came to a wood, and there was honey upon the ground. 26 And when the people were come into the wood, behold, the honey dropped; but no man put his hand to his mouth: for the people feared the 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 eyes were enlightened. 28 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. 29 Then said Jonathan, My father hath troubled the land: see, I pray you, how mine eyes have been enlightened, be cause I tasted a little of this honey. 30 How much more, if haply the people had eaten freely to-day of the spoil of their enemies which they found for had there not been now a much greater slaughter among the Philistines? 31 And they smote the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon: and the Pr. 16. 33.
