Jonatan sagte es ihm und sprach: Ich habe nur ein wenig Honig gekostet mit der Spitze des Stabes, den ich in meiner Hand hatte, und siehe, ich soll sterben! Da sprach Saul: Gott tue mir dies und das; Jonatan, du mußt unbedingt sterben!
Und Saul sprach: So tue mir Gott, und so füge er hinzu, du mußt gewißlich sterben, Jonathan!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Saul answered, God do so and more also,.... A form of an oath imprecating evils upon him more and greater than he chose to mention, see the like form in Ruth 1:17, though Abarbinel thinks this is not the form of an oath, but an asseveration of a curse that would befall him; as that God would not answer him when he inquired of him, and that he would add to do so again and again, if he died not:
for thou shall surely die, Jonathan; such words from a father must be very striking to a son, and argue a want of paternal affection in Saul, that could call his son by his name, and deliver such a speech unto him in so strong a manner.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 14:44. And Saul answered - thou shalt surely die, Jonathan. — To save thy rash oath! So must John Baptist's head be taken off at the desire of an impure woman, because a Herod had sworn to give her whatever she might request! Unfeeling brute! However, the king was JUDGE. But what said the people, who were the JURY?
