1 Samuel 20:18-22

18Then Jonathan said to him, “1Tomorrow is the new moon, and you will be missed since 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 beside the stone Ezel.

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

21Then behold, I will send the boy, telling him, ‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I specifically say to the boy, ‘Behold, the arrows are on this side of you, get them,’ then come, because it is safe for you and there is nothing to harm you, as the Lord lives.

22But if I 2say to the youth, ‘3Behold, the arrows are beyond you,’ go, because the Lord has sent you away.
