1 Samuel 2:30

Context

2:30 Therefore the Lord, the God of Israel, says, ‘I really did say 1  that your house and your ancestor’s house would serve 2  me forever.’ But now the Lord says, ‘May it never be! 3  For I will honor those who honor me, but those who despise me will be cursed!

1 Samuel 20:42

Context
20:42 Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, for the two of us have sworn together in the name of the Lord saying, ‘The Lord will be between me and you and between my descendants and your descendants forever.’”

(21:1)

4 Then David 5  got up and left, while Jonathan went back to the city.

1 tn The infinitive absolute appears before the finite verb for emphasis.

2 tn Heb “walk about before.”

3 tn Heb “may it be far removed from me.”

4 sn Beginning with 20:42b, the verse numbers through 21:15 in the English Bible differ from the verse numbers in the Hebrew text (BHS), with 20:42b ET = 21:1 HT, 21:1 ET = 21:2 HT, 21:2 ET = 21:3 HT, etc., through 21:15 ET = 21:16 HT. With 22:1 the verse numbers in the ET and HT are again the same.

5 tn Heb “he”; the referent (David) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
