1 Samuel 20:24-29
24So DavidH1732 hidH5641 himself in the fieldH7704: and when the newH2320 moonH2320 wasH1961 come, the kingH4428 satH3427 him downH3427 to eatH398 foodH3899. 25And the kingH4428 satH3427 upon his seatH4186, as at other timesH6471, even upon the seatH4186 by the wallH7023; and JonathanH3083 stoodH6965 up, and AbnerH74 satH3427 by Saul’s sideH6654: but David’s placeH4725 was empty. 26Nevertheless SaulH7586 spake not anythingH3972 that dayH3117: for he thought, Something hath befallen him, he is not cleanH2889; surely he is not cleanH2889. 27And it cameH935 to pass on the morrow after the newH2320 moonH2320, which wasH1961 the secondH8145 dayH3117, that David’s placeH4725 wasH1961 empty: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto JonathanH3083 his sonH1121, Wherefore cometh not the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 to meat, neither yesterdayH8543, nor to-day? 28And JonathanH3083 answeredH6030 SaulH7586, DavidH1732 earnestly askedH7592 leave of me to go to Beth-lehem: 29and he saidH559, Let me goH935, I pray thee; for our familyH4940 hath a sacrificeH2077 in the cityH5892; and my brotherH251, he hath commandedH6680 me to be there: and nowH6258, if I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in thine eyesH5869, let me get awayH7971, I pray thee, and seeH7200 my brethren. ThereforeH3651 he is not comeH935 unto the king’sH4428 tableH7979.
