1 Samuel 20

And David
<01732>

fled
<01272> (8799)

from Naioth
<05121>

in Ramah
<07414>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)

before
<06440>

Jonathan
<03083>_,

What have I done
<06213> (8804)_?

what [is] mine iniquity
<05771>_?

and what [is] my sin
<02403>

before
<06440>

thy father
<01>_,

that he seeketh
<01245> (8764)

my life
<05315>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, God forbid
<02486>_;

thou shalt not die
<04191> (8799)_:

behold, my father
<01>

will do
<06213> (8799) (8675) <06213> (8804)

nothing
<01697>

either great
<01419>

or small
<06996>_,

but that he will shew
<01540> (8799) <0241>

it me: and why should my father
<01>

hide
<05641> (8686)

this thing
<01697>

from me? it [is] not [so]. {shew...: Heb. uncover mine ear}

And David
<01732>

sware
<07650> (8735)

moreover, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thy father
<01>

certainly
<03045> (8800)

knoweth
<03045> (8804)

that I have found
<04672> (8804)

grace
<02580>

in thine eyes
<05869>_;

and he saith
<0559> (8799)_,

Let not Jonathan
<03083>

know
<03045> (8799)

this, lest he be grieved
<06087> (8735)_:

but truly
<0199>

[as] the LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_,

and [as] thy soul
<05315>

liveth
<02416>_,

[there is] but a step
<06587>

between me and death
<04194>_.

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Jonathan
<03083>

unto David
<01732>_,

Whatsoever thy soul
<05315>

desireth
<0559> (8799)_,

I will even do
<06213> (8799)

[it] for thee. {Whatsoever...: or, Say what is thy mind and I will do, etc} {desireth: Heb. speaketh, or, thinketh}

And David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jonathan
<03083>_,

Behold, to morrow
<04279>

[is] the new moon
<02320>_,

and I should not fail
<03427> (8800)

to sit
<03427> (8799)

with the king
<04428>

at meat
<0398> (8800)_:

but let me go
<07971> (8765)_,

that I may hide
<05641> (8738)

myself in the field
<07704>

unto the third
<07992>

[day] at even
<06153>_.

If thy father
<01>

at all
<06485> (8800)

miss
<06485> (8799)

me, then say
<0559> (8804)_,

David
<01732>

earnestly
<07592> (8736)

asked
<07592> (8738)

[leave] of me that he might run
<07323> (8800)

to Bethlehem
<01035>

his city
<05892>_:

for [there is] a yearly
<03117>

sacrifice
<02077>

there for all the family
<04940>_.

{sacrifice: or, feast}

If he say
<0559> (8799)

thus, [It is] well
<02896>_;

thy servant
<05650>

shall have peace
<07965>_:

but if he be very
<02734> (8800)

wroth
<02734> (8799)_,

[then] be sure
<03045> (8798)

that evil
<07451>

is determined
<03615> (8804)

by him.

Therefore thou shalt deal
<06213> (8804)

kindly
<02617>

with thy servant
<05650>_;

for thou hast brought
<0935> (8689)

thy servant
<05650>

into a covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

with thee: notwithstanding, if there be
<03426>

in me iniquity
<05771>_,

slay
<04191> (8685)

me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring
<0935> (8686)

me to thy father
<01>_?

And Jonathan
<03083>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Far be it from thee
<02486>_:

for if I knew
<03045> (8799)

certainly
<03045> (8800)

that evil
<07451>

were determined
<03615> (8804)

by my father
<01>

to come
<0935> (8800)

upon thee, then would not I tell
<05046> (8686)

it thee?

Then said
<0559> (8799)

David
<01732>

to Jonathan
<03083>_,

Who shall tell
<05046> (8686)

me? or what [if] thy father
<01>

answer
<06030> (8799)

thee roughly
<07186>_?

And Jonathan
<03083>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto David
<01732>_,

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

and let us go out
<03318> (8799)

into the field
<07704>_.

And they went out
<03318> (8799)

both
<08147>

of them into the field
<07704>_.

And Jonathan
<03083>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto David
<01732>_,

O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

when I have sounded
<02713> (8799)

my father
<01>

about to morrow
<04279>

any time
<06256>_,

[or] the third
<07992>

[day], and, behold, [if there be] good
<02895> (8804)

toward David
<01732>_,

and I then send
<07971> (8799)

not unto thee, and shew
<01540> (8804) <0241>

it thee; {sounded: Heb. searched} {shew...: Heb. uncover thine ear}

The LORD
<03068>

do
<06213> (8799)

so
<03541>

and much more
<03254> (8686)

to Jonathan
<03083>_:

but if it please
<03190> (8686)

my father
<01>

[to do] thee evil
<07451>_,

then I will shew
<01540> (8804) <0241>

it thee, and send thee away
<07971> (8765)_,

that thou mayest go
<01980> (8804)

in peace
<07965>_:

and the LORD
<03068>

be with thee, as he hath been with my father
<01>_.

{shew...: Heb. uncover thine ear}

And thou shalt not only while yet
<0518>

I live
<02416>

shew
<06213> (8799)

me the kindness
<02617>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

that I die
<04191> (8799)

not:

But [also] thou shalt not cut off
<03772> (8686)

thy kindness
<02617>

from my house
<01004>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_:

no, not when the LORD
<03068>

hath cut off
<03772> (8687)

the enemies
<0341> (8802)

of David
<01732>

every one
<0376>

from the face
<06440>

of the earth
<0127>_.

So Jonathan
<03083>

made
<03772> (8799)

[a covenant] with the house
<01004>

of David
<01732>_,

[saying], Let the LORD
<03068>

even require
<01245> (8765)

[it] at the hand
<03027>

of David's
<01732>

enemies
<0341> (8802)_.

{made: Heb. cut}

And Jonathan
<03083>

caused David
<01732>

to swear
<07650> (8687)

again
<03254> (8686)_,

because he loved
<0160>

him: for he loved
<0157> (8804)

him as he loved
<0160>

his own soul
<05315>_.

{because...: or, by his love toward him}

Then Jonathan
<03083>

said
<0559> (8799)

to David
<01732>_,

To morrow
<04279>

[is] the new moon
<02320>_:

and thou shalt be missed
<06485> (8738)_,

because thy seat
<04186>

will be empty
<06485> (8735)_.

{empty: Heb. missed}

And [when] thou hast stayed three days
<08027> (8765)_,

[then] thou shalt go down
<03381> (8799)

quickly
<03966>_,

and come
<0935> (8804)

to the place
<04725>

where thou didst hide
<05641> (8738)

thyself when
<03117>

the business
<04639>

was [in hand], and shalt remain
<03427> (8804)

by
<0681>

the stone
<068>

Ezel
<0237>_.

{quickly: or, diligently: Heb. greatly} {Ezel: or, that sheweth the way} {when the...: Heb. in the day of the business}

And I will shoot
<03384> (8686)

three
<07969>

arrows
<02671>

on the side
<06654>

[thereof], as though I shot
<07971> (8763)

at a mark
<04307>_.

And, behold, I will send
<07971> (8799)

a lad
<05288>_,

[saying], Go
<03212> (8798)_,

find out
<04672> (8798)

the arrows
<02671>_.

If I expressly
<0559> (8800)

say
<0559> (8799)

unto the lad
<05288>_,

Behold, the arrows
<02671>

[are] on this side of thee, take
<03947> (8798)

them; then come
<0935> (8798)

thou: for [there is] peace
<07965>

to thee, and no hurt
<01697>_;

[as] the LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_.

{no hurt: Heb. not any thing}

But if I say
<0559> (8799)

thus unto the young man
<05958>_,

Behold, the arrows
<02671>

[are] beyond
<01973>

thee; go thy way
<03212> (8798)_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath sent thee away
<07971> (8765)_.

And [as touching] the matter
<01697>

which thou and I have spoken
<01696> (8765)

of, behold, the LORD
<03068>

[be] between thee and me for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_.

So David
<01732>

hid
<05641> (8735)

himself in the field
<07704>_:

and when the new moon
<02320>

was come, the king
<04428>

sat him down
<03427> (8799)

to eat
<0398> (8800)

meat
<03899>_.

And the king
<04428>

sat
<03427> (8799)

upon his seat
<04186>_,

as at other times
<06471>_,

[even] upon a seat
<04186>

by the wall
<07023>_:

and Jonathan
<03083>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and Abner
<074>

sat
<03427> (8799)

by Saul's
<07586>

side
<06654>_,

and David's
<01732>

place
<04725>

was empty
<06485> (8735)_.

Nevertheless Saul
<07586>

spake
<01696> (8765)

not any thing
<03972>

that day
<03117>_:

for he thought
<0559> (8804)_,

Something hath befallen
<04745>

him, he [is] not
<01115>

clean
<02889>_;

surely he [is] not clean
<02889>_.

And it came to pass on the morrow
<04283>_,

[which was] the second
<08145>

[day] of the month
<02320>_,

that David's
<01732>

place
<04725>

was empty
<06485> (8735)_:

and Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jonathan
<03083>

his son
<01121>_,

Wherefore cometh
<0935> (8804)

not the son
<01121>

of Jesse
<03448>

to meat
<03899>_,

neither yesterday
<08543>_,

nor to day
<03117>_?

And Jonathan
<03083>

answered
<06030> (8799)

Saul
<07586>_,

David
<01732>

earnestly
<07592> (8736)

asked
<07592> (8738)

[leave] of me
<05978>

[to go] to Bethlehem
<01035>_:

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let me go
<07971> (8761)_,

I pray thee; for our family
<04940>

hath a sacrifice
<02077>

in the city
<05892>_;

and my brother
<0251>_,

he hath commanded
<06680> (8765)

me [to be there]: and now, if I have found
<04672> (8804)

favour
<02580>

in thine eyes
<05869>_,

let me get away
<04422> (8735)_,

I pray thee, and see
<07200> (8799)

my brethren
<0251>_.

Therefore he cometh
<0935> (8804)

not unto the king's
<04428>

table
<07979>_.

Then Saul's
<07586>

anger
<0639>

was kindled
<02734> (8799)

against Jonathan
<03083>_,

and he said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Thou son
<01121>

of the perverse
<05753> (8737)

rebellious
<04780>

[woman], do not I know
<03045> (8804)

that thou hast chosen
<0977> (8802)

the son
<01121>

of Jesse
<03448>

to thine own confusion
<01322>_,

and unto the confusion
<01322>

of thy mother's
<0517>

nakedness
<06172>_?

{Thou...: or, Thou perverse rebel: Heb. Son of perverse rebellion}

For as long as
<03117>

the son
<01121>

of Jesse
<03448>

liveth
<02425> (8804)

upon the ground
<0127>_,

thou shalt not be established
<03559> (8735)_,

nor thy kingdom
<04438>_.

Wherefore now send
<07971> (8798)

and fetch
<03947> (8798)

him unto me, for he shall surely die
<01121> <04194>_.

{shall...: Heb. is the son of death}

And Jonathan
<03083>

answered
<06030> (8799)

Saul
<07586>

his father
<01>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Wherefore shall he be slain
<04191> (8714)_?

what hath he done
<06213> (8804)_?

And Saul
<07586>

cast
<02904> (8686)

a javelin
<02595>

at him to smite
<05221> (8687)

him: whereby Jonathan
<03083>

knew
<03045> (8799)

that it was determined
<03617>

of his father
<01>

to slay
<04191> (8687)

David
<01732>_.

So Jonathan
<03083>

arose
<06965> (8799)

from the table
<07979>

in fierce
<02750>

anger
<0639>_,

and did eat
<0398> (8804)

no meat
<03899>

the second
<08145>

day
<03117>

of the month
<02320>_:

for he was grieved
<06087> (8738)

for David
<01732>_,

because his father
<01>

had done him shame
<03637> (8689)_.

And it came to pass in the morning
<01242>_,

that Jonathan
<03083>

went out
<03318> (8799)

into the field
<07704>

at the time appointed
<04150>

with David
<01732>_,

and a little
<06996>

lad
<05288>

with him.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto his lad
<05288>_,

Run
<07323> (8798)_,

find out
<04672> (8798)

now the arrows
<02671>

which I shoot
<03384> (8688)_.

[And] as the lad
<05288>

ran
<07323> (8801)_,

he shot
<03384> (8804)

an arrow
<02678>

beyond
<05674> (8687)

him. {beyond...: Heb. to pass over him}

And when the lad
<05288>

was come
<0935> (8799)

to the place
<04725>

of the arrow
<02678>

which Jonathan
<03083>

had shot
<03384> (8804)_,

Jonathan
<03083>

cried
<07121> (8799)

after
<0310>

the lad
<05288>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

[Is] not the arrow
<02678>

beyond
<01973>

thee?

And Jonathan
<03083>

cried
<07121> (8799)

after
<0310>

the lad
<05288>_,

Make speed
<04120>_,

haste
<02363> (8798)_,

stay
<05975> (8799)

not. And Jonathan's
<03083>

lad
<05288>

gathered up
<03950> (8762)

the arrows
<02671> (8675) <02678>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to his master
<0113>_.

But the lad
<05288>

knew
<03045> (8804)

not any thing
<03972>_:

only Jonathan
<03083>

and David
<01732>

knew
<03045> (8804)

the matter
<01697>_.

And Jonathan
<03083>

gave
<05414> (8799)

his artillery
<03627>

unto his lad
<05288>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Go
<03212> (8798)_,

carry
<0935> (8685)

[them] to the city
<05892>_.

{artillery: Heb. instruments} {his lad: Heb. the lad that was his}

[And] as soon as the lad
<05288>

was gone
<0935> (8802)_,

David
<01732>

arose
<06965> (8804)

out of [a place] toward
<0681>

the south
<05045>_,

and fell
<05307> (8799)

on his face
<0639>

to the ground
<0776>_,

and bowed
<07812> (8691)

himself three
<07969>

times
<06471>_:

and they kissed
<05401> (8799)

one
<0376>

another
<07453>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)

one
<0376>

with another
<07453>_,

until David
<01732>

exceeded
<01431> (8689)_.

And Jonathan
<03083>

said
<0559> (8799)

to David
<01732>_,

Go
<03212> (8798)

in peace
<07965>_,

forasmuch as we have sworn
<07650> (8738)

both
<08147>

of us in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The LORD
<03068>

be between me and thee, and between my seed
<02233>

and thy seed
<02233>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_.

And he arose
<06965> (8799)

and departed
<03212> (8799)_:

and Jonathan
<03083>

went
<0935> (8802)

into the city
<05892>_.

{forasmuch...: or, the LORD be witness of that which etc}
