1 Samuel 20:13-17

WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[13] Yahweh do so to Jonathan, and more also, should it please my father to do you evil, if I don't disclose it to you, and send you away, that you may go in peace: and Yahweh be with you, as he has been with my father. [14] You shall not only while yet I live show me the loving kindness of Yahweh, that I not die; [15] but also you shall not cut off your kindness from my house forever; no, not when Yahweh has cut off the enemies of David everyone from the surface of the earth. [16] So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, [saying], Yahweh will require it at the hand of David's enemies. [17] Jonathan caused David to swear again, for the love that he had to him; for he loved him as he loved his own soul.
