1 Samuel 20:13-17
13IfH3588 it pleasesH3190 my fatherH1 to do you harmH7463, 1may the LordH3068 doH6213 soH3541 to 2meH3083 and moreH3254 soH3541, if I fail to 3informH1540H241 you and sendH7971 you awayH7971, so that you may goH1980 in safetyH7965. And 4may the LordH3068 be with you as He has beenH1961 with my fatherH1. 14And ifH518 I am stillH5750 aliveH2416, will you not showH6213 me the faithfulnessH2617 of the LordH3068, so that I do not dieH4191? 15And 5you shall neverH3808H5704H5769 cutH3772 offH3772 your loyaltyH2617 to my houseH1004, 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, “6May the LordH3068 demandH1245 it from the handsH3027 of David’sH1732 enemiesH340.” 17And JonathanH3083 made DavidH1732 vowH7650 againH3254 because of his loveH160 for him, becauseH3588 7he lovedH157 him as he lovedH157 his own lifeH5315.
