| (0.47) | 1Sa 20:30 |
| Saul became angry with Jonathan 1 and said to him, “You stupid traitor! 2 Don’t I realize that to your own disgrace and to the disgrace of your mother’s nakedness you have chosen this son of Jesse? |
| (0.47) | 1Sa 20:31 |

| So David got up early in the morning and entrusted the flock to someone else who would watch over it. 1 After loading up, he went just as Jesse had instructed him. He arrived at the camp 2 as the army was going out to the battle lines shouting its battle cry. |

| For all of you have conspired against me! No one informs me 1 when my own son makes an agreement with this son of Jesse! Not one of you feels sorry for me or informs me that my own son has commissioned my own servant to hide in ambush against me, as is the case today!” |
| (0.38) | 1Sa 22:13 |
