1 Samuel 20:27-29

27ButH1961 on the day afterH4283 the New MoonH2320, the secondH8145 day, David’sH1732 placeH4725 was still emptyH6485, and SaulH7586 askedH559 his sonH1121 JonathanH3083, “WhyH4069 hasn’tH3808 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 comeH935 toH413 the mealH3899 eitherH1571 yesterdayH8543 or todayH1571H3117H413?”

28JonathanH3083 answeredH6030, “DavidH1732H5978 urgently requestedH7592 my permission toH5704 go to BethlehemH1035, 29sayingH559, ‘PleaseH4994 let me goH7971, becauseH3588 our clanH4940 is holding a sacrificeH2077 in the cityH5892H1931, and my brotherH251 has told meH6680 to be there. So nowH6258, ifH518 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in your eyesH5869, pleaseH4994 let me goH4422 and seeH7200 my brothersH251.’ That is whyH5921H3651 he has notH3808 comeH935 toH413 the king’sH4428 tableH7979.”
