'Ate' in the Bible

How he entered into the house of God, and ate the shewbread, which it was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those with him, but for the priests only?

And all ate and were filled, and they took up what was over and above of fragments twelve hand-baskets full.

And all ate and were filled; and they took up what was over and above of the fragments seven baskets full;

but they that ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.
