1 Samuel 20:35-42

35And it came to pass in the morning that Jonathan went out into the field, to the place agreed on with David, and a little lad with him. 36And he said to his lad, Run, find now the arrows which I shoot. The lad ran, and he shot the arrow beyond him. 37And when the lad came to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the lad and said, Is not the arrow away beyond thee? 38And Jonathan cried after the lad, Make speed, haste, stay not! And Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows, and came to his master. 39And the lad knew nothing: only Jonathan and David knew the matter. 40And Jonathan gave his weapons to his lad, and said to him, Go, carry them to the city. 41The lad went, and David arose from the side of the south, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times; and they kissed one another, and wept one with another, until David exceeded. 42And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, forasmuch as we have both of us sworn in the name of Jehovah, saying, Jehovah be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever! And he arose and departed; and Jonathan went into the city.
