    8Therefore 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 in me iniquity, slay me yourself; for why should you bring me to your father?

    9And Jonathan said, Far be it from you: for if I knew certainly that evil were determined by my father to come upon you, then would I not tell it to you?

    10Then David said to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? Or what if your father answers you roughly?

    11And Jonathan said to David, Come, and let us go out into the field. And they went out both of them into the field.

    12And Jonathan said to David, O LORD God of Israel, when I have sounded my father about tomorrow any time, or the third day, and behold, if there is good toward David, and I do not send to you, and show it to you;

    13The LORD do so and much more to Jonathan: but if it pleases my father to do you evil, then I will show it to you, and send you away, that you may go in peace: and the LORD be with you, as He has been with my father.

    14And you shall not only while I yet live show me the kindness of the LORD, that I do not die:

    15But also you shall not cut off your kindness from my house forever: no, not when the LORD has cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth.

    16So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, Let the LORD even require it at the hand of David's enemies.

    17And Jonathan caused David to swear again, because he loved him: for he loved him as he loved his own soul.

    1And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? What is my iniquity? And what is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?

    2And he said to him, God forbid; you shall not die: behold, my father will do nothing great or small, but he will show it to me: and why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so.

    3And David swore moreover, and said, Your father certainly knows that I have found favor in your eyes; and he says, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly, as the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death.

    1And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David.

    2But Jonathan, Saul's son, delighted greatly in David; and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeks to kill you; now therefore, I pray you, be on guard until the morning, and stay in a secret place, and hide yourself:

    3And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will speak with my father about you; and what I observe, that I will tell you.

    4And Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father, and said to him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he has not sinned against you, and because his deeds have been very good toward you:

    5For he put his life in his hand, and killed the Philistine, and the LORD worked a great salvation for all Israel; you saw it, and rejoiced; why then will you sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?

    6And Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan; and Saul swore, As the LORD lives, he shall not be killed.

    7And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.
