1 Samuel 20:27-29

27But it cameH1961 aboutH1961 the nextH4283 dayH4283, the secondH8145 day of the newH2320 moonH2320, that David’sH1732 placeH4725 wasH6485 emptyH6485 again; so SaulH7586 saidH559 to his sonH1121 JonathanH3083, “WhyH4069 has the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 not comeH935 to the mealH3899, eitherH1571 yesterdayH8543 orH1571 todayH3117?” 28And JonathanH3083 answeredH6030 SaulH7586, “1DavidH1732 earnestlyH7592 requestedH7592 leaveH7592 of me to go to BethlehemH1035. 29He saidH559, ‘PleaseH4994 letH7971 me goH7971, becauseH3588 our familyH4940 has a sacrificeH2077 in the cityH5892, and my brotherH251 has orderedH6680 me to attend. So nowH6258, ifH518 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in your sightH5869, pleaseH4994 let me slipH4422 awayH4422 so that I may seeH7200 my brothersH251.’ ForH5921 thisH5921H3651 reasonH5921H3651 he has not comeH935 to the king’sH4428 tableH7979.”
