1 Samuel 19:1-6

WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[1] Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Jonathan, Saul's son, delighted much in David. [2] Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeks to kill you: now therefore, please take care of yourself in the morning, and live in a secret place, and hide yourself: [3] and I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will commune with my father of you; and if I see anything, I will tell you. [4] Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, Don't let the king sin against his servant, against David; because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you: [5] for he put his life in his hand, and struck the Philistine, and Yahweh worked a great victory for all Israel: you saw it, and did rejoice; why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause? [6] Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan: and Saul swore, As Yahweh lives, he shall not be put to death.
