1 Samuel 20:32-34

32Jonathan responded to his father Saul, “Why should he be put to death? What has he done?”

33Then Saul threw his spear at Jonathan in order to strike him down. So Jonathan was convinced that his father had decided to kill David.

34Jonathan got up from the table enraged. He did not eat any food on that second day of the new moon, for he was upset that his father had humiliated David.
