1 Samuel 20:1-3

1And DavidH1732 fledH1272 from NaiothH5121 in RamahH7414, and cameH935 and saidH559 beforeH6440 JonathanH3083, WhatH4100 have I doneH6213? whatH4100 is mine iniquityH5771? and whatH4100 is my sinH2403 beforeH6440 thy fatherH1, that he seeketh my lifeH5315?

2And he saidH559 unto him, GodH559 forbidH2486; thou shalt notH3808 dieH4191: beholdH2009, my fatherH1 doeth nothingH3808 eitherH4480 greatH1419 or smallH6996, but that he discloseth it unto meH4480: and whyH4069 should my fatherH1 hideH5641 this thingH1697 from meH4480? it is notH3808 soH4480.

3And DavidH1732 sware moreoverH5750, and saidH559, Thy fatherH1 knoweth wellH3045 that I have foundH4672 graceH2580 in thine eyesH5869; and he saith, LetH408 notH408 JonathanH3083 knowH3045 this, lestH6435 he be grievedH6087: but trulyH3588 as the LORDH3068 liveth, and as thy soulH5315 liveth, there is but a stepH6587 betweenH996 meH5315 and deathH4194.
