1 Samuel 20:12-15

12And JonathanH3083 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, O LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, when I have soundedH2713 my fatherH1 about to morrowH4279 any timeH6256, or the thirdH7992 day, and, behold, if there be goodH2895 toward DavidH1732, and I then sendH7971 not unto thee, and shewH241H1540 it thee;12

13The LordH3068 doH6213 soH3541 and much moreH3254 to JonathanH3083: but if it pleaseH3190 my fatherH1 to do thee evilH7451, then I will shewH241H1540 it thee, and send thee awayH7971, that thou mayest goH1980 in peaceH7965: and the LordH3068 be with thee, as he hath been with my fatherH1.3

14And thou shalt not only while yetH518 I liveH2416 shewH6213 me the kindnessH2617 of the LordH3068, that I dieH4191 not:

15But also thou shalt not cut offH3772 thy kindnessH2617 from my houseH1004 forH5704 everH5769: no, not when the LordH3068 hath cut offH3772 the enemiesH341 of DavidH1732 every oneH376 from the faceH6440 of the earthH127.
