1 Samuel 20:8

Context
NET ©

You must be loyal 1  to your servant, for you have made a covenant with your servant in the Lord’s name. 2  If I am guilty, 3  you yourself kill me! Why bother taking me to your father?”

NIV ©

As for you, show kindness to your servant, for you have brought him into a covenant with you before the LORD. If I am guilty, then kill me yourself! Why hand me over to your father?"

NASB ©

"Therefore deal kindly with your servant, for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the LORD with you. But if there is iniquity in me, put me to death yourself; for why then should you bring me to your father?"

NLT ©

Show me this kindness as my sworn friend––for we made a covenant together before the LORD––or kill me yourself if I have sinned against your father. But please don’t betray me to him!"

MSG ©

Oh, stick with me in this. You've entered into a covenant of GOD with me, remember! If I'm in the wrong, go ahead and kill me yourself. Why bother giving me up to your father?"

BBE ©

So, then, be kind to your servant; for you have been united with your servant in an agreement made before the Lord: but if there is any wrongdoing in me, put me to death yourself; why take me to your father?

NRSV ©

Therefore deal kindly with your servant, for you have brought your servant into a sacred covenant with you. But if there is guilt in me, kill me yourself; why should you bring me to your father?"

NKJV ©

"Therefore you shall deal kindly with your servant, for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the LORD with you. Nevertheless, if there is iniquity in me, kill me yourself, for why should you bring me to your father?"

<03068>
with thee: notwithstanding, if there be

in me iniquity
<05771>_,
slay
<04191> (8685)
me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring
<0935> (8686)
me to thy father
<01>_?
