1 Samuel 20:35-42

35 In the morning Jonathan went out into the field to the appointment with David, and with him a little boy. 36 And he said to his boy, “Run and find the arrows that I shoot.” As the boy ran, he shot an arrow beyond him. 37 And when the boy came to the place of the arrow that Jonathan had shot, Jonathan called after the boy and said, ^a“Is not the arrow beyond you?” 38 And Jonathan called after the boy, “Hurry! Be quick! Do not stay!” So Jonathan’s boy gathered up the arrows and came to his master. 39 But the boy knew nothing. Only Jonathan and David knew the matter. 40 And Jonathan gave his weapons to his boy and said to him, “Go and carry them to the city.” 41 And as soon as the boy had gone, David rose from beside the stone heap ^{▼▼Septuagint; Hebrew from beside the south} and fell on his face to the ground and bowed three times. And they kissed one another and wept with one another, David weeping the most. 42 Then Jonathan said to David, ^c“Go in peace, because we have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, saying, ^d‘The Lord shall be between me and you, ^eand between my offspring and your offspring, forever.’” And he rose and departed, and Jonathan went into the city. ^{▼▼This sentence is 21:1 in Hebrew}
