1 Samuel 20:40-42

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 1bowed three times. And they kissed each other and wept together, until 2David wept immeasurably.

42Then Jonathan said to David, “3Go 4in safety, since we have sworn to each other in the name of the Lord, saying, ‘5The Lord will be between me and you, and between my 6descendants and your 7descendants forever.’” 8So David set out and went on his way, while Jonathan went into the city.
