1 Samuel 20:9-23

9JonathanH3083 saidH559, “FarH2486 be it from you! For ifH518 I should indeedH3045 learnH3045 that evilH7463 has been decidedH3615 by my fatherH1 to comeH935 upon you, then would I not tellH5046 you about it?” 10Then DavidH1732 saidH559 to JonathanH3083, “WhoH4310 will tellH5046 me 1ifH176H4100 your fatherH1 answersH6030 you harshlyH7186?” 11JonathanH3083 saidH559 to DavidH1732, “ComeH1980, and let us goH3318 out into the fieldH7704.” So bothH8147 of them wentH3318 out to the fieldH7704.

12Then JonathanH3083 saidH559 to DavidH1732, “The LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, be witness! WhenH3588 I have soundedH2713 out my fatherH1 about this timeH6256 tomorrowH4279, or the thirdH7992 day, beholdH2009, if there is goodH2895 feeling towardH413 DavidH1732, shall I not thenH227 sendH7971 to you and 2makeH1540 it knownH1540H241 to you? 13IfH3588 it pleaseH3190 my fatherH1 to do you harmH7463, 3may the LordH3068 doH6213 soH3541 to JonathanH3083 and moreH3254 alsoH3254, if I do not 4makeH1540 it knownH1540H241 to you and sendH7971 you awayH7971, that you may goH1980 in safetyH7965. And 5may the LordH3068 be with you as He has beenH1961 with my fatherH1. 14IfH518 I am stillH5750 aliveH2416, will you not showH6213 me the lovingkindnessH2617 of the LordH3068, that I may not dieH4191? 156You shall not cutH3772 offH3772 your lovingkindnessH2617 from my houseH1004 foreverH5704H5769, not even when the LordH3068 cutsH3772 offH3772 everyH376 oneH376 of the enemiesH340 of DavidH1732 from the faceH6440 of the earthH127.” 16So JonathanH3083 madeH3772 a covenant with the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, saying, “7May the LordH3068 requireH1245 it at the handsH3027 of David’sH1732 enemiesH340.” 17JonathanH3083 made DavidH1732 vowH7650 againH3254 because of his loveH160 for him, becauseH3588 8he lovedH157 him as he lovedH157 his own lifeH5315.

18Then JonathanH3083 saidH559 to him, “9TomorrowH4279 is the newH2320 moonH2320, and you will be missedH6485 becauseH3588 your seatH4186 will be emptyH6485. 19When you have stayedH8027 for threeH8027 daysH8027, you shall goH3381 downH3381 quicklyH3966 and comeH935 to the placeH4725 whereH834H8033 you hidH5641 yourself on that eventfulH4639 dayH3117, and you shall remainH3427 by the stoneH68 EzelH237. 20I will shootH3384 threeH7969 arrowsH2671 to the sideH6654, as though I shotH7971 at a targetH4307. 21And beholdH2009, I will sendH7971 the ladH5288, saying, ‘GoH1980, findH4672 the arrowsH2671.’ IfH518 I specificallyH559 sayH559 to the ladH5288, ‘BeholdH2009, the arrowsH2671 are on thisH2008 sideH2008 of you, getH3947 them,’ then comeH935; for there is safetyH7965 for you and 10noH369 harmH1697, as the LordH3068 livesH2416. 22But ifH518 I 11sayH559 to the youthH5958, ‘12BeholdH2009, the arrowsH2671 are beyondH4480H1973 you,’ goH1980, for the LordH3068 has sentH7971 you awayH7971. 2313As for the 14agreementH1697 of whichH834 you and I have spokenH1696, beholdH2009, 15the LordH3068 is betweenH996 you and me foreverH5704H5769.”
