Any father
would be proud
to have a son
like Jonathon
yes sir
member his
service against
those philistines
"Lets go." He said
"To those
uncircumcised fellows.
"I'm with ya
heart and soul."
His armor bearer
said.
Crossing over
"Let them see us.
if they say
come up to us,
the day is ours."
"Look, Hebrews
are crawling
outta their holes."
The philistines cackle.
"Come up to us
we'll teach ya
a lesson."
"The Lords
given them
into our hands!"
Jonathon gleam.
Swords unsheathe
the two of them slaughter twenty
the ground shook
panic stricken
Saul's lookouts
saw the enemy
melting away.
"Muster the forces,"
Saul said.
"See who has left us."
"Its you're son
and his armor bearer."
the men reply.
The Lord
rescued Israel
that day,
mmm, but the war
raged on,
It wasn't long after
that Saul said
"Cursed be any man
who eats before
I avenge my enemies."
So the army starve.
Entering the woods
honey was oozing
outta the ground
but no one touch it.
But Jonathon
who hadn't
heard his fathers oath.
Reached out
the end of his staff
and dipped it
into the honeycomb.
"Cursed be any man
who eats today,"
A soldier spoke up.
"That's what you're
father said."
"Alas he's made
trouble for us.
See how my
eyes brighten.
With a drop
of honey
how much better
would our victory
be if the men
had eaten today?"
That night
Saul said.
"Lets go down
and plunder
the philistines."
But the priest said.
"Lets ask
God first."
So Saul ask.
But God
didn't answer.
"Come here all of you,"
Saul commanded.
"Lets find out
what sins
been committed
whomever it may be
even if its my son.
He must die!"
No one said a word.
"Very well,
than we'll
cast lots."
Saul pray
to reveal
the sinner.
Jonathon was discover.
"What have you done?"
"I merely tasted
a little honey
and now I must die?"
"May God deal
with me ever
so severely
if I don't!"
That day,
what we had to do...
just thank God
we convince him
to spare his son
