1 Samuel 20:12-17

12Then Jonathan told David, “I promise by the Lord, the God of Israel, that by this time tomorrow, or the next day at the latest, I will talk to my father and let you know at once how he feels about you. If he speaks favorably about you, I will let you know.

13But if he is angry and wants you killed, may the Lord strike me and even kill me if I don’t warn you so you can escape and live. May the Lord be with you as he used to be with my father.

14And may you treat me with the faithful love of the Lord as long as I live. But if I die,

15treat my family with this faithful love, even when the Lord destroys all your enemies from the face of the earth.”

16So Jonathan made a solemn pact with David, saying, “May the Lord destroy all your enemies!”

17And Jonathan made David reaffirm his vow of friendship again, for Jonathan loved David as he loved himself.
