1 Samuel 20:35-42

35Now it came about in the morning that Jonathan went out to the field at the time agreed upon with David, and a little boy was with him.

36He said to his boy, “1Run, find now the arrows which I am about to shoot.” The boy ran, and he shot 2an arrow past him.

37When the boy reached the location of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan called after the boy and said, “3Is the arrow not beyond you?”

38Then Jonathan called after the boy, “Hurry, be quick, do not stay!” And Jonathan’s boy picked up the arrow and came to his master.

39But the boy was not aware of anything; only Jonathan and David knew about the matter.

40Then Jonathan gave his weapons to his boy and said to him, “Go, bring them to the city.”

41When the boy was gone, David got up from the south side, then he fell on his face to the ground and 4bowed three times. And they kissed each other and wept together, until 5David wept immeasurably.

42Then Jonathan said to David, “6Go 7in safety, since we have sworn to each other in the name of the Lord, saying, ‘8The Lord will be between me and you, and between my 9descendants and your 10descendants forever.’” 11So David set out and went on his way, while Jonathan went into the city.
