41. And Saul said to the Lord, the God of Israel: "O Lord, God of Israel, grant a sign: Why is it that you will not respond to your servant this day? If this iniquity is in me, or in my son Jonathan, grant an indication. Or if this iniquity is in your people, grant a sanctification." And Jonathan and Saul were discovered, but the people were released.
42. And Saul said, "Cast lots between myself and Jonathan, my son." And Jonathan was caught.
43. Then Saul said to Jonathan, "Tell me what you have done." And Jonathan revealed to him, and said: "Truly, I tasted a little honey with the top of the staff that was in my hand. And behold, I shall die."
44. And Saul said, "May God do these things to me, and may he add these other things, for you shall surely die, Jonathan!"
