Saul adjures the people, and Jonathan tastes the honey
사울이 백성에게 맹세시키고 요나단이 꿀을 맛봄
1 Samuel 14:24–30: the men of Israel are distressed that day; for Saul had adjured the people, saying, “Cursed is the man who eats any food until it is evening, and I am avenged of my enemies.” So none of the people tasted food. All the people come into the forest; and there is honey on the ground. When the people have come to the forest, behold, honey is dripping, but no one puts his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath. But Jonathan didn’t hear when his father commanded the people with the oath. Therefore he puts out the end of the rod that was in his hand and dips it in the honeycomb, and puts his hand to his mouth; and his eyes brighten. Then one of the people answers, and says, “Your father directly commanded the people with an oath, saying, ‘Cursed is the man who eats food today.’” The text goes on, “So the people were faint.” Then Jonathan says, “My father has troubled the land. Please look how my eyes have brightened because I tasted a little of this honey. How much more, if perhaps the people had eaten freely today of the plunder of their enemies which they found? For now there has been no great slaughter among the Philistines.” The Korean Revised Version gives 그러므로 백성이 피곤하였나이다 (so the people are faint) as the end of what one of the people says.
