New Living Translation
1 Samuel 18:1-4
1After David had finished talking with Saul, he met Jonathan, the king’s son. There was an immediate bond between them, for Jonathan loved David.
2From that day on Saul kept David with him and wouldn’t let him return home.
3And Jonathan made a solemn pact with David, because he loved him as he loved himself.
4Jonathan sealed the pact by taking off his robe and giving it to David, together with his tunic, sword, bow, and belt.
