1 Samuel 20:18-22

18Then Jonathan said to him, “1Tomorrow is the new moon, and you will be missed because your seat will be empty.

19When you have stayed for three days, you shall go down quickly and come to the place where you hid yourself on that eventful day, and you shall remain by the stone Ezel.

20I will shoot three arrows to the side, as though I shot at a target.

21And behold, I will send the lad, saying, ‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I specifically say to the lad, ‘Behold, the arrows are on this side of you, get them,’ then come; for there is safety for you and 2no harm, as the Lord lives.

22But if I 3say to the youth, ‘4Behold, the arrows are beyond you,’ go, for the Lord has sent you away.
