And DavidH1732 fledH1272 from NaiothH5121 in RamahH7414, and cameH935 and saidH559 beforeH6440 JonathanH3083, What have I doneH6213? what is mine iniquityH5771? and what is my sinH2403 beforeH6440 thy fatherH1, that he seekethH1245 my lifeH5315?
And he saidH559 unto him, God forbidH2486; thou shalt not dieH4191: behold, my fatherH1 will doH6213+H6213 nothingH1697 either greatH1419 or smallH6996, but that he will shewH1540+H241 it me: and why should my fatherH1 hideH5641 this thingH1697 from me? it is not so. {shew…: Heb. uncover mine ear}
And DavidH1732 swareH7650 moreover, and saidH559, Thy fatherH1 certainlyH3045 knowethH3045 that I have foundH4672 graceH2580 in thine eyesH5869; and he saithH559, Let not JonathanH3083 knowH3045 this, lest he be grievedH6087: but trulyH199 as the LORDH3068 livethH2416, and as thy soulH5315 livethH2416, there is but a stepH6587 between me and deathH4194.
Then saidH559 JonathanH3083 unto DavidH1732, Whatsoever thy soulH5315 desirethH559, I will even doH6213 it for thee. {Whatsoever…: or, Say what is thy mind and I will do, etc} {desireth: Heb. speaketh, or, thinketh}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto JonathanH3083, Behold, to morrowH4279 is the new moonH2320, and I should not failH3427 to sitH3427 with the kingH4428 at meatH398: but let me goH7971, that I may hideH5641 myself in the fieldH7704 unto the thirdH7992 day at evenH6153.
If thy fatherH1 at allH6485 missH6485 me, then sayH559, DavidH1732 earnestlyH7592 askedH7592 leave of me that he might runH7323 to BethlehemH1035 his cityH5892: for there is a yearlyH3117 sacrificeH2077 there for all the familyH4940. {sacrifice: or, feast}
If he sayH559 thus, It is wellH2896; thy servantH5650 shall have peaceH7965: but if he be veryH2734 wrothH2734, then be sureH3045 that evilH7451 is determinedH3615 by him.
Therefore thou shalt dealH6213 kindlyH2617 with thy servantH5650; for thou hast broughtH935 thy servantH5650 into a covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 with thee: notwithstanding, if there beH3426 in me iniquityH5771, slayH4191 me thyself; for why shouldest thou bringH935 me to thy fatherH1?
And JonathanH3083 saidH559, Far be it from theeH2486: for if I knewH3045 certainlyH3045 that evilH7451 were determinedH3615 by my fatherH1 to comeH935 upon thee, then would not I tellH5046 it thee?
Then saidH559 DavidH1732 to JonathanH3083, Who shall tellH5046 me? or what if thy fatherH1 answerH6030 thee roughlyH7186?
And JonathanH3083 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, ComeH3212, and let us go outH3318 into the fieldH7704. And they went outH3318 bothH8147 of them into the fieldH7704.
And JonathanH3083 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, when I have soundedH2713 my fatherH1 about to morrowH4279 any timeH6256, or the thirdH7992 day, and, behold, if there be goodH2895 toward DavidH1732, and I then sendH7971 not unto thee, and shewH1540+H241 it thee; {sounded: Heb. searched} {shew…: Heb. uncover thine ear}
The LORDH3068 doH6213 soH3541 and much moreH3254 to JonathanH3083: but if it pleaseH3190 my fatherH1 to do thee evilH7451, then I will shewH1540+H241 it thee, and send thee awayH7971, that thou mayest goH1980 in peaceH7965: and the LORDH3068 be with thee, as he hath been with my fatherH1. {shew…: Heb. uncover thine ear}
And thou shalt not only while yetH518 I liveH2416 shewH6213 me the kindnessH2617 of the LORDH3068, that I dieH4191 not:
But also thou shalt not cut offH3772 thy kindnessH2617 from my houseH1004 forH5704 everH5769: no, not when the LORDH3068 hath cut offH3772 the enemiesH341 of DavidH1732 every oneH376 from the faceH6440 of the earthH127.
So JonathanH3083 madeH3772 a covenant with the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, saying, Let the LORDH3068 even requireH1245 it at the handH3027 of David'sH1732 enemiesH341. {made: Heb. cut}
And JonathanH3083 caused DavidH1732 to swearH7650 againH3254, because he lovedH160 him: for he lovedH157 him as he lovedH160 his own soulH5315. {because…: or, by his love toward him}
Then JonathanH3083 saidH559 to DavidH1732, To morrowH4279 is the new moonH2320: and thou shalt be missedH6485, because thy seatH4186 will be emptyH6485. {empty: Heb. missed}
And when thou hast stayed three daysH8027, then thou shalt go downH3381 quicklyH3966, and comeH935 to the placeH4725 where thou didst hideH5641 thyself whenH3117 the businessH4639 was in hand, and shalt remainH3427 byH681 the stoneH68 EzelH237. {quickly: or, diligently: Heb. greatly} {when the…: Heb. in the day of the business} {Ezel: or, that sheweth the way}
And I will shootH3384 threeH7969 arrowsH2671 on the sideH6654 thereof, as though I shotH7971 at a markH4307.
And, behold, I will sendH7971 a ladH5288, saying, GoH3212, find outH4672 the arrowsH2671. If I expresslyH559 sayH559 unto the ladH5288, Behold, the arrowsH2671 are on this side of thee, takeH3947 them; then comeH935 thou: for there is peaceH7965 to thee, and no hurtH1697; as the LORDH3068 livethH2416. {no hurt: Heb. not any thing}
But if I sayH559 thus unto the young manH5958, Behold, the arrowsH2671 are beyondH1973 thee; go thy wayH3212: for the LORDH3068 hath sent thee awayH7971.
And as touching the matterH1697 which thou and I have spokenH1696 of, behold, the LORDH3068 be between thee and me forH5704 everH5769.
So DavidH1732 hidH5641 himself in the fieldH7704: and when the new moonH2320 was come, the kingH4428 sat him downH3427 to eatH398 meatH3899.
And the kingH4428 satH3427 upon his seatH4186, as at other timesH6471, even upon a seatH4186 by the wallH7023: and JonathanH3083 aroseH6965, and AbnerH74 satH3427 by Saul'sH7586 sideH6654, and David'sH1732 placeH4725 was emptyH6485.
Nevertheless SaulH7586 spakeH1696 not any thingH3972 that dayH3117: for he thoughtH559, Something hath befallenH4745 him, he is notH1115 cleanH2889; surely he is not cleanH2889.
And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, which was the secondH8145 day of the monthH2320, that David'sH1732 placeH4725 was emptyH6485: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto JonathanH3083 his sonH1121, Wherefore comethH935 not the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 to meatH3899, neither yesterdayH8543, nor to dayH3117?
And JonathanH3083 answeredH6030 SaulH7586, DavidH1732 earnestlyH7592 askedH7592 leave of meH5978 to go to BethlehemH1035:
And he saidH559, Let me goH7971, I pray thee; for our familyH4940 hath a sacrificeH2077 in the cityH5892; and my brotherH251, he hath commandedH6680 me to be there: and now, if I have foundH4672 favourH2580 in thine eyesH5869, let me get awayH4422, I pray thee, and seeH7200 my brethrenH251. Therefore he comethH935 not unto the king'sH4428 tableH7979.
Then Saul'sH7586 angerH639 was kindledH2734 against JonathanH3083, and he saidH559 unto him, Thou sonH1121 of the perverseH5753 rebelliousH4780 woman, do not I knowH3045 that thou hast chosenH977 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 to thine own confusionH1322, and unto the confusionH1322 of thy mother'sH517 nakednessH6172? {Thou…: or, Thou perverse rebel: Heb. Son of perverse rebellion}
For as long asH3117 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 livethH2425 upon the groundH127, thou shalt not be establishedH3559, nor thy kingdomH4438. Wherefore now sendH7971 and fetchH3947 him unto me, for he shall surely dieH1121+H4194. {shall…: Heb. is the son of death}
And JonathanH3083 answeredH6030 SaulH7586 his fatherH1, and saidH559 unto him, Wherefore shall he be slainH4191? what hath he doneH6213?
And SaulH7586 castH2904 a javelinH2595 at him to smiteH5221 him: whereby JonathanH3083 knewH3045 that it was determinedH3617 of his fatherH1 to slayH4191 DavidH1732.
So JonathanH3083 aroseH6965 from the tableH7979 in fierceH2750 angerH639, and did eatH398 no meatH3899 the secondH8145 dayH3117 of the monthH2320: for he was grievedH6087 for DavidH1732, because his fatherH1 had done him shameH3637.
And it came to pass in the morningH1242, that JonathanH3083 went outH3318 into the fieldH7704 at the time appointedH4150 with DavidH1732, and a littleH6996 ladH5288 with him.
And he saidH559 unto his ladH5288, RunH7323, find outH4672 now the arrowsH2671 which I shootH3384. And as the ladH5288 ranH7323, he shotH3384 an arrowH2678 beyondH5674 him. {beyond…: Heb. to pass over him}
And when the ladH5288 was comeH935 to the placeH4725 of the arrowH2678 which JonathanH3083 had shotH3384, JonathanH3083 criedH7121 afterH310 the ladH5288, and saidH559, Is not the arrowH2678 beyondH1973 thee?
And JonathanH3083 criedH7121 afterH310 the ladH5288, Make speedH4120, hasteH2363, stayH5975 not. And Jonathan'sH3083 ladH5288 gathered upH3950 the arrowsH2671+H2678, and cameH935 to his masterH113.
But the ladH5288 knewH3045 not any thingH3972: only JonathanH3083 and DavidH1732 knewH3045 the matterH1697.
And JonathanH3083 gaveH5414 his artilleryH3627 unto his ladH5288, and saidH559 unto him, GoH3212, carryH935 them to the cityH5892. {artillery: Heb. instruments} {his lad: Heb. the lad that was his}
And as soon as the ladH5288 was goneH935, DavidH1732 aroseH6965 out of a place towardH681 the southH5045, and fellH5307 on his faceH639 to the groundH776, and bowedH7812 himself threeH7969 timesH6471: and they kissedH5401 oneH376 anotherH7453, and weptH1058 oneH376 with anotherH7453, until DavidH1732 exceededH1431.
And JonathanH3083 saidH559 to DavidH1732, GoH3212 in peaceH7965, forasmuch as we have swornH7650 bothH8147 of us in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 be between me and thee, and between my seedH2233 and thy seedH2233 forH5704 everH5769. And he aroseH6965 and departedH3212: and JonathanH3083 wentH935 into the cityH5892. {forasmuch…: or, the LORD be witness of that which etc}

Then JonathanH3083 and DavidH1732 madeH3772 a covenantH1285, because he lovedH160 him as his own soulH5315.
SoH3541 and moreH3254 also doH6213 GodH430 unto the enemiesH341 of DavidH1732, if I leaveH7604 of all that pertain to him byH5704 the morningH1242 lightH216 any that pissethH8366 against the wallH7023.
In the sameH1931 dayH3117 the LORDH3068 madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with AbramH87, sayingH559, Unto thy seedH2233 have I givenH5414 this landH776, from the riverH5104 of EgyptH4714 unto the greatH1419 riverH5104, the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578:
And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hardH1692 upon SaulH7586 and upon his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3083, and AbinadabH41, and MalchishuaH4444, Saul'sH7586 sonsH1121.
For when they cameH935 into the houseH1004, he layH7901 on his bedH4296 in his bedchamberH2315+H4904, and they smoteH5221 him, and slewH4191 him, and beheadedH5493 him, and tookH3947 his headH7218, and gat them awayH3212 throughH1870 the plainH6160 all nightH3915.
And they broughtH935 the headH7218 of IshboshethH378 unto DavidH1732 to HebronH2275, and saidH559 to the kingH4428, Behold the headH7218 of IshboshethH378 the sonH1121 of SaulH7586 thine enemyH341, which soughtH1245 thy lifeH5315; and the LORDH3068 hathH5414 avengedH5360 my lordH113 the kingH4428 this dayH3117 of SaulH7586, and of his seedH2233.
But the kingH4428 tookH3947 the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345, whom she bareH3205 unto SaulH7586, ArmoniH764 and MephiboshethH4648; and the fiveH2568 sonsH1121 of MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586, whom she brought upH3205 for AdrielH5741 the sonH1121 of BarzillaiH1271 the MeholathiteH4259: {Michal: or, Michal's sister} {brought…: Heb. bare to Adriel}
