Therefore thou shalt deal kindly with thy servant; for thou hast brought thy servant into a covenant of the LORD with thee: notwithstanding, if there be in me iniquity, slay me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring me to thy father?(1 Samuel 20:8)
And Jonathan said, Far be it from thee: for if I knew certainly that evil were determined by my father to come upon thee, then would not I tell it thee?(1 Samuel 20:9)
Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? or what if thy father answer thee roughly?(1 Samuel 20:10)
And Jonathan said unto David, Come, and let us go out into the field. And they went out both of them into the field.
And Jonathan said unto David, O LORD God of Israel, when I have sounded my father about to morrow any time, or the third day, and, behold, if there be good toward David, and I then send not unto thee, and show it thee;(1 Samuel 20:12)
The LORD do so and much more to Jonathan: but if it please my father to do thee evil, then I will show it thee, and send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace: and the LORD be with thee, as he hath been with my father.(1 Samuel 20:13)
And thou shalt not only while yet I live show me the kindness of the LORD, that I die not:(1 Samuel 20:14)
