1 Samuel 14:42-44

Easy-to-Read Version

⁴² Saul said, “Throw them again to show the guilty one—me or my son Jonathan.” Jonathan was shown to be the one.

⁴³ Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me what you have done.”

Jonathan told Saul, “I only tasted a little honey from the end of my stick. Should I die for doing that?”

⁴⁴ Saul said, “I made an oath and asked God to punish me if I didn’t keep it. Jonathan, you must die.”
