Read word by word“Far from it!” Jonathan replied. “You will not die. Indeed, my father does nothing, great or small, without telling me. So why would he hide this matter from me? This cannot be true!”
Read word by wordBut David again vowed, “Your father knows very well that I have found favor in your eyes, and he has said, ‘Jonathan must not know of this, or he will be grieved.’ As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, there is but a step between me and death.”

Read word by word“Never!” Jonathan replied. “If I ever found out that my father had evil intentions against you, would I not tell you?”
Read word by word“Come,” he replied, “let us go out to the field.” So the two of them went out into the field,
Read word by wordand Jonathan said, “By the LORD, the God of Israel, I will sound out my father by this time tomorrow or the next day. If he is favorable toward you, will I not send for you and tell you?
Read word by wordBut if my father intends to bring evil on you, then may the LORD punish me, and ever so severely, if I do not tell you and send you on your way in safety. May the LORD be with you, just as He has been with my father.

Read word by wordWhen you have stayed three days, hurry down to the place you hid on the day this trouble began, and remain beside the stone Ezel.
Read word by wordI will shoot three arrows to the side of it, as if I were aiming at a target.
Read word by wordThen I will send a boy and say, ‘Go, find the arrows!’ Now, if I expressly say to him, ‘Look, the arrows are on this side of you; bring them,’ then come, because as surely as the LORD lives, it is safe for you, and there is no danger.
Read word by wordBut if I say to the young man, ‘Look, the arrows are beyond you,’ then you must go, for the LORD has sent you away.
Read word by wordAnd as for the matter you and I have discussed, the LORD is a witness between you and me forever.”

Read word by wordHe sat in his usual place by the wall, opposite Jonathan and beside Abner, but David’s place was empty.

Read word by wordThen Saul’s anger burned against Jonathan, and he said to him, “You son of a perverse and rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of the mother who bore you?
Read word by wordFor as long as the son of Jesse lives on this earth, neither you nor your kingdom shall be established. Now send for him and bring him to me, for he must surely die!”

Read word by wordAnd Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, for the two of us have sworn in the name of the LORD, saying, ‘May the LORD be a witness between you and me, and between your descendants and mine forever.’” Then David got up and departed, and Jonathan went back into the city.
