1 Samuel 20:3

Context

20:3 Taking an oath, David again 1  said, “Your father is very much aware of the fact 2  that I have found favor with you, and he has thought, 3  ‘Don’t let Jonathan know about this, or he will be upset.’ But as surely as the Lord lives and you live, there is about one step between me and death!”

1 tc The LXX and the Syriac Peshitta lack the word “again.”

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

3 tn Heb “said,” that is, to himself. So also in v. 25.
