1 Samuel 14:30-32 Common English Bible (CEB)

30. It would have been even better if the troops had eaten some of their enemies’ plunder today when they found it! But now the Philistine defeat isn’t as thorough as it might have been."

31. That day, after they had fought the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon, the troops were completely exhausted.

32. So the troops tore into the plunder, taking sheep, cattle, and calves. They slaughtered them right on the ground and devoured them with the blood still in them.
