And Jonathan<S>3083</S> said<S>559</S> unto<S>413</S> David,<S>1732</S> O LORD<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> of Israel,<S>3478</S> when<S>3588</S> I have sounded<S>2713</S> <S>853</S> my father<S>1</S> about tomorrow<S>4279</S> any time,<S>6256</S> <i>or</i> the third<S>7992</S> <i>day</i>, and, behold,<S>2009</S> <i>if there be</i> good<S>2896</S> toward<S>413</S> David,<S>1732</S> and I then<S>227</S> send<S>7971</S> not<S>3808</S> unto<S>413</S> thee, and show it thee;<S>1540</S> <S>853</S> <S>241</S>


text:
The LORD<S>3068</S> do<S>6213</S> so<S>3541</S> and much<S>3541</S> more<S>3254</S> to Jonathan:<S>3083</S> but if<S>3588</S> it please<S>3190</S> <S>413</S> my father<S>1</S> <i>to do</i> thee<S>853</S> evil,<S>7451</S> then I will show it thee,<S>1540</S> <S>853</S> <S>241</S> and send thee away,<S>7971</S> that thou mayest go<S>1980</S> in peace:<S>7965</S> and the LORD<S>3068</S> be<S>1961</S> with<S>5973</S> thee, as<S>834</S> he hath been<S>1961</S> with<S>5973</S> my father.<S>1</S>


text:
And thou shalt not<S>3808</S> only while<S>518</S> yet<S>5750</S> I live<S>2416</S> show<S>6213</S> <S>5973</S> me the kindness<S>2617</S> of the LORD,<S>3068</S> that I die<S>4191</S> not: <S>3808</S>


text:
But <i>also</i> thou shalt not<S>3808</S> cut off<S>3772</S> <S>853</S> thy kindness<S>2617</S> from<S>4480</S> <S>5973</S> my house<S>1004</S> forever:<S>5704</S> <S>5769</S> no, not<S>3808</S> when the LORD<S>3068</S> hath cut off<S>3772</S> <S>853</S> the enemies<S>341</S> of David<S>1732</S> every one<S>376</S> from the face<S>4480</S> <S>5921</S> <S>6440</S> of the earth.<S>127</S>


text:
So Jonathan<S>3083</S> made<S>3772</S> <i>a covenant</i> with<S>5973</S> the house<S>1004</S> of David,<S>1732</S> <i>saying</i>, Let the LORD<S>3068</S> even require<S>1245</S> <i>it</i> at the hand<S>4480</S> <S>3027</S> of David's<S>1732</S> enemies.<S>341</S>


text:
And Jonathan<S>3083</S> caused<S>853</S> David<S>1732</S> to swear<S>7650</S> again,<S>3254</S> because he loved<S>160</S> him: for<S>3588</S> he loved<S>157</S> him as he loved<S>160</S> his own soul.<S>5315</S>


text:
Then Jonathan<S>3083</S> said<S>559</S> to David, Tomorrow<S>4279</S> <i>is</i> the new moon:<S>2320</S> and thou shalt be missed,<S>6485</S> because<S>3588</S> thy seat<S>4186</S> will be empty.<S>6485</S>


text:
And <i>when</i> thou hast stayed three days,<S>8027</S> <i>then</i> thou shalt go down<S>3381</S> quickly,<S>3966</S> and come<S>935</S> to<S>413</S> the place<S>4725</S> where<S>834</S> thou didst hide thyself<S>5641</S> when<S>8033</S> <S>3117</S> the business<S>4639</S> was <i>in hand</i>, and shalt remain<S>3427</S> by<S>681</S> the stone<S>68</S> Ezel.<S>237</S>


text:
And I<S>589</S> will shoot<S>3384</S> three<S>7969</S> arrows<S>2671</S> on the side<S>6654</S> <i>thereof</i>, as though I shot<S>7971</S> at a mark.<S>4307</S>


text:
And, behold,<S>2009</S> I will send<S>7971</S> <S>853</S> a lad,<S>5288</S> <i>saying</i>, Go,<S>1980</S> find out<S>4672</S> <S>853</S> the arrows.<S>2671</S> If<S>518</S> I expressly say<S>559</S> <S>559</S> unto the lad,<S>5288</S> Behold,<S>2009</S> the arrows<S>2671</S> <i>are</i> on this side<S>4480</S> <S>2008</S> of thee, take<S>3947</S> them; then come<S>935</S> thou: for<S>3588</S> <i>there is</i> peace<S>7965</S> to thee, and no<S>369</S> hurt;<S>1697</S> <i>as</i> the LORD<S>3068</S> liveth.<S>2416</S>


text:
But if<S>518</S> I say<S>559</S> thus<S>3541</S> unto the young man,<S>5958</S> Behold,<S>2009</S> the arrows<S>2671</S> <i>are</i> beyond<S>4480</S> <S>1973</S> thee; go thy way:<S>1980</S> for<S>3588</S> the LORD<S>3068</S> hath sent thee away.<S>7971</S>

And <i>as touching</i> the matter<S>1697</S> which<S>834</S> thou<S>859</S> and I<S>589</S> have spoken<S>1696</S> of, behold,<S>2009</S> the LORD<S>3068</S> <i>be</i> between<S>996</S> thee and me forever.<S>5704</S> <S>5769</S>


text:
<pb/>So David<S>1732</S> hid himself<S>5641</S> in the field:<S>7704</S> and when the new moon<S>2320</S> was come,<S>1961</S> the king<S>4428</S> sat him down<S>3427</S> to eat<S>398</S> meat.<S>3899</S>

And the king<S>4428</S> sat<S>3427</S> upon<S>5921</S> his seat,<S>4186</S> as at other times,<S>6471</S> <S>6471</S> <i>even</i> upon<S>413</S> a seat<S>4186</S> by the wall:<S>7023</S> and Jonathan<S>3083</S> arose,<S>6965</S> and Abner<S>74</S> sat<S>3427</S> by Saul's<S>7586</S> side,<S>4480</S> <S>6654</S> and David's<S>1732</S> place<S>4725</S> was empty.<S>6485</S>

<pb/>Then Saul's<S>7586</S> anger<S>639</S> was kindled<S>2734</S> against Jonathan,<S>3083</S> and he said<S>559</S> unto him, Thou son<S>1121</S> of the perverse<S>5753</S> rebellious<S>4780</S> <i>woman</i>, do not<S>3808</S> I know<S>3045</S> that<S>3588</S> thou<S>859</S> hast chosen<S>977</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Jesse<S>3448</S> to thine own confusion,<S>1322</S> and unto the confusion<S>1322</S> of thy mother's<S>517</S> nakedness?<S>6172</S>

So Jonathan<S>3083</S> arose<S>6965</S> from<S>4480</S> <S>5973</S> the table<S>7979</S> in fierce<S>2750</S> anger,<S>639</S> and did eat<S>398</S> no<S>3808</S> meat<S>3899</S> the second<S>8145</S> day<S>3117</S> of the month:<S>2320</S> for<S>3588</S> he was grieved<S>6087</S> for<S>413</S> David,<S>1732</S> because<S>3588</S> his father<S>1</S> had done him shame.<S>3637</S>
