21. The Hebrews who had earlier gone over to the Philistine side joined the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
22. When all the Israelites who had hidden themselves in the hill country of Ephraim heard that the Philistines had fled, they too pursued them in battle.
23. So the Lord delivered Israel that day, and the battle shifted over to Beth Aven.
24. Now the men of Israel were hard pressed that day, for Saul had made the army agree to this oath: “Cursed be the man who eats food before evening! I will get my vengeance on my enemies!” So no one in the army ate anything.
25. Now the whole army entered the forest and there was honey on the ground.
