1 Samuel 20:4

2 And he said unto him, Elohim forbid; you shall not die: behold, my father will do nothing either great or small, but that he will shew it me: and why should my father hide this thing from me? it not .

3 And David sware moreover, and said, your father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in your eyes; and he says, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly the Yahuah liveth, and your soul liveth, but a step between me and death.

4 Then said Jonathan unto David, Whatsoever your soul desireth, I will even do for you.

5 And David said unto Jonathan, Behold, to morrow the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third at even.

6 If your father at all miss me, then say, David earnestly asked of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city: for a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.
