Then Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me what you have done.” So Jonathan told him, “I used the end of my stick to get a little honey and taste it. And now do I have to die?”
Joshua said to Achan, “My son, the Lord is the God of Israel. So give him glory and honor him by telling the truth! Tell me what you have done. Don’t hide it from me.”
But Jonathan hadn’t heard that his father had forced the army to make a promise. Jonathan had a long stick in his hand. He reached out and dipped the end of it into the honeycomb. He put some honey in his mouth. It gave him new life.
