bread under mine hand, but there is
hallowed bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women.

bread is in a manner common,
yea, though it were
sanctified this day in the vessel.

equipment of the young men is holy, as it is even on common missions, and all the more at this time.”

hallowed bread: for there was no
bread there but the
shewbread, that was taken from before the LORD, to put hot
bread in the day when it was taken away.

raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on
asses.
Then Saul fell
straightway all along on the earth, and was
sore afraid, because of the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in him; for he had eaten no
bread all the day, nor all the night.
Immediately Saul fell flat on the ground,
terrified by the words of Samuel. And his strength was gone, because he had not eaten anything all that day and night.
Now therefore, I pray thee,
hearken thou also unto the voice of thine
handmaid, and let me set a
morsel of

listen to your servant and let me set a
morsel of
bread before you so you may eat and have the strength to go on your way.”

raisins. So he
ate and was revived, for he had not had any food or water for three days and three nights.

shew thee kindness for
Jonathan thy father’s sake, and will restore thee all the land of Saul thy father; and thou shalt eat
bread at my table continually.

wept, but when he died, you got up and
ate.”

asses be for the king’s household to
ride on; and the
bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as be
faint in the wilderness may drink.

donkeys are for the king’s household to
ride, the
bread and summer fruit are for the young men to eat, and the wine is to refresh those who become exhausted in the wilderness.”

smite them: wouldest thou
smite those whom thou hast taken
captive with thy sword and with thy bow? set
