1 Samuel 14:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 Also all the men of Israel which had hid themselves in mount Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines were fled, they followed after them in the battle.
23 And so the Lord saved Israel that day: and the battle continued unto Beth Aven.
24 And at that time the men of Israel were pressed with hunger: for Saul charged the people with an oath, saying, [a]Cursed be the man that eateth [b]food till night, that I may be avenged of mine enemies: so none of the people tasted any sustenance.
