1 Samuel 20:7 (YLT) Young's Literal Translation

1 And David fleeth from Naioth in Ramah, and cometh, and saith before Jonathan, `What have I done? what is mine iniquity? and what my sin before thy father, that he is seeking my life?`
2 And he saith to him, `Far be it! thou dost not die; lo, my father doth not do anything great or small and doth not uncover mine ear; and wherefore doth my father hide from me this thing? this thing is not.`
3 And David sweareth again, and saith, `Thy father hath certainly known that I have found grace in thine eyes, and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved; and yet, Jehovah liveth, and thy soul liveth, but -- as a step between me and death.`
4 And Jonathan saith to David, `What doth thy soul say? -- and I do it for thee.`
5 And David saith unto Jonathan, `Lo, the new moon is to-morrow; and I do certainly sit with the king to eat; and thou hast sent me away, and I have been hidden in a field till the third evening;
6 if thy father at all look after me, and thou hast said, David asked earnestly of me to run to Beth-Lehem his city, for a sacrifice of the days is there for all the family.
7 If thus he say: Good; peace is for thy servant; and if it be very displeasing to him -- know that the evil hath been determined by him;
8 and thou hast done kindness, to thy servant, for into a covenant of Jehovah thou hast brought thy servant with thee; -- and if there is in me iniquity, put thou me to death; and unto thy father, why is this -- thou dost bring me in?`
9 And Jonathan saith, `Far be it from thee! for I certainly do not know that the evil hath been determined by my father to come upon thee, and I do not declare it to thee.`
10 And David saith unto Jonathan, `Who doth declare to me? or what if thy father doth answer thee sharply?`
11 And Jonathan saith unto David, `Come, and we go out into the field;` and they go out both of them into the field.
12 And Jonathan saith unto David, `Jehovah, God of Israel -- when I search my father, about this time to-morrow or the third day, and lo, good is towards David, and I do not then send unto thee, and have uncovered thine ear --
13 thus doth Jehovah do to Jonathan, and thus doth He add; when the evil concerning thee is good to my father, then I have uncovered thine ear, and sent thee away, and thou hast gone in peace, and Jehovah is with thee, as he was with my father;
14 and not only while I am alive dost thou do with me the kindness of Jehovah, and I die not,
15 but thou dost not cut off thy kindness from my house unto the age, nor in Jehovah`s cutting off the enemies of David, each one from off the face of the ground.`
16 And Jonathan covenanteth with the house of David, and Jehovah hath sought it from the hand of the enemies of David;
17 and Jonathan addeth to cause David to swear, because he loveth him, for with the love of his own soul he hath loved him.
18 And Jonathan saith to him, `To-morrow is new moon, and thou hast been looked after, for thy seat is looked after;
19 and on the third day thou dost certainly come down, and hast come in unto the place where thou wast hidden in the day of the work, and hast remained near the stone Ezel.
20 `And I shoot three of the arrows at the side, sending out for myself at a mark;
21 and lo, I send the youth: Go, find the arrows. If I at all say to the youth, Lo, the arrows are on this side of thee -- take them, -- then come thou, for peace is for thee, and there is nothing; Jehovah liveth.
22 And if thus I say to the young man, Lo, the arrows are beyond thee, -- go, for Jehovah hath sent thee away;
23 as to the thing which we have spoken, I and thou, lo, Jehovah is between me and thee -- unto the age.`
24 And David is hidden in the field, and it is the new moon, and the king sitteth down by the food to eat,
25 and the king sitteth on his seat, as time by time, on a seat by the wall, and Jonathan riseth, and Abner sitteth at the side of Saul, and David`s place is looked after.
26 And Saul hath not spoken anything on that day, for he said, `It is an accident; he is not clean -- surely not clean.`
27 And it cometh to pass on the second morrow of the new moon, that David`s place is looked after, and Saul saith unto Jonathan his son, `Wherefore hath the son of Jesse not come in, either yesterday or to-day, unto the food?`
28 And Jonathan answereth Saul, `David hath been earnestly asked of me unto Beth-Lehem,
29 and he saith, Send me away, I pray thee, for a family sacrifice we have in the city, and my brother himself hath given command to me, and now, if I have found grace in thine eyes, let me go away, I pray thee, and see my brethren; therefore he hath not come unto the table of the king.`
30 And the anger of Saul burneth against Jonathan, and he saith to him, `Son of a perverse rebellious woman! have I not known that thou art fixing on the son of Jesse to thy shame, and to the shame of the nakedness of thy mother?
31 for all the days that the son of Jesse liveth on the ground thou art not established, thou and thy kingdom; and now, send and bring him unto me, for he is a son of death.`
32 And Jonathan answereth Saul his father, and saith unto him, `Why is he put to death? what hath he done?`
33 And Saul casteth the javelin at him to smite him, and Jonathan knoweth that it hath been determined by his father to put David to death.
34 And Jonathan riseth from the table in the heat of anger, and hath not eaten food on the second day of the new moon, for he hath been grieved for David, for his father put him to shame.
35 And it cometh to pass in the morning, that Jonathan goeth out into the field for the appointment with David, and a little youth is with him.
36 And he saith to his youth, `Run, find, I pray thee, the arrows which I am shooting;` the youth is running, and he hath shot the arrow, causing it to pass over him.
37 And the youth cometh unto the place of the arrow which Jonathan hath shot, and Jonathan calleth after the youth, and saith, `Is not the arrow beyond thee?`
38 and Jonathan calleth after the youth, `Speed, haste, stand not;` and Jonathan`s youth gathereth the arrows, and cometh unto his lord.
39 And the youth hath not known anything, only Jonathan and David knew the word.
40 And Jonathan giveth his weapons unto the youth whom he hath, and saith to him, `Go, carry into the city.`
41 The youth hath gone, and David hath risen from Ezel, at the south, and falleth on his face to the earth, and boweth himself three times, and they kiss one another, and they weep one with another, till David exerted himself;
42 and Jonathan saith to David, `Go in peace, in that we have sworn -- we two -- in the name of Jehovah, saying, Jehovah is between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed -- unto the age;` and he riseth and goeth; and Jonathan hath gone in to the city.
1 And David H1732 fled H1272 from Naioth H4480 H5121 in Ramah, H7414 and came H935 and said H559 before H6440 Jonathan, H3083 What H4100 have I done H6213 ? what H4100 is mine iniquity H5771 ? and what H4100 is my sin H2403 before H6440 thy father, H1 that H3588 he seeketh H1245 H853 my life H5315 ?
2 And he said H559 unto him , God forbid; H2486 thou shalt not H3808 die: H4191 behold, H2009 my father H1 will do H6213 nothing H3808 H1697 either great H1419 or H176 small, H6996 but that he will show H3808 H1540 it H853 me: H241 and why H4069 should my father H1 hide H5641 H853 this H2088 thing H1697 from H4480 me? it H2063 is not H369 so .
3 And David H1732 swore H7650 moreover, H5750 and said, H559 Thy father H1 certainly knoweth H3045 H3045 that H3588 I have found H4672 grace H2580 in thine eyes; H5869 and he saith, H559 Let not H408 Jonathan H3083 know H3045 this, H2063 lest H6435 he be grieved: H6087 but truly H199 as the LORD H3068 liveth, H2416 and as thy soul H5315 liveth, H2416 there H3588 is but a step H6587 between H996 me and death. H4194
4 Then said H559 Jonathan H3083 unto H413 David, H1732 Whatsoever H4100 thy soul H5315 desireth, H559 I will even do H6213 it for thee.
5 And David H1732 said H559 unto H413 Jonathan, H3083 Behold, H2009 tomorrow H4279 is the new moon, H2320 and I H595 should not fail to sit H3427 H3427 with H5973 the king H4428 at meat: H398 but let me go, H7971 that I may hide myself H5641 in the field H7704 unto H5704 the third H7992 day at even. H6153
6 If H518 thy father H1 at all miss H6485 H6485 me , then say, H559 David H1732 earnestly asked H7592 H7592 leave of H4480 me that he might run H7323 to Bethlehem H1035 his city: H5892 for H3588 there is a yearly H3117 sacrifice H2077 there H8033 for all H3605 the family. H4940
7 If H518 he say H559 thus, H3541 It is well; H2896 thy servant H5650 shall have peace: H7965 but if H518 he be very wroth H2734 H2734 , then be sure H3045 that H3588 evil H7451 is determined H3615 by H4480 H5973 him.
8 Therefore thou shalt deal H6213 kindly H2617 with H5921 thy servant; H5650 for H3588 thou hast brought H935 H853 thy servant H5650 into a covenant H1285 of the LORD H3068 with H5973 thee: notwithstanding, if H518 there be H3426 in me iniquity, H5771 slay H4191 me thyself; H859 for H5704 why H4100 shouldest thou bring H935 me to thy father H1 ?
9 And Jonathan H3083 said, H559 Far be it H2486 from thee: for H3588 if H518 I knew certainly H3045 H3045 that H3588 evil H7451 were determined H3615 by H4480 H5973 my father H1 to come H935 upon H5921 thee , then would not H3808 I tell H5046 it thee?
10 Then said H559 David H1732 to H413 Jonathan, H3083 Who H4310 shall tell H5046 me? or H176 what H4100 if thy father H1 answer H6030 thee roughly H7186 ?
11 And Jonathan H3083 said H559 unto H413 David, H1732 Come, H1980 and let us go out H3318 into the field. H7704 And they went out H3318 both H8147 of them into the field. H7704
12 And Jonathan H3083 said H559 unto H413 David, H1732 O LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 when H3588 I have sounded H2713 H853 my father H1 about tomorrow H4279 any time, H6256 or the third H7992 day , and, behold, H2009 if there be good H2896 toward H413 David, H1732 and I then H227 send H7971 not H3808 unto H413 thee , and show it thee H1540 H853 H241 ;
13 The LORD H3068 do H6213 so H3541 and much H3541 more H3254 to Jonathan: H3083 but if H3588 it please H3190 H413 my father H1 to do thee H853 evil, H7451 then I will show it thee H1540 H853 H241 , and send thee away, H7971 that thou mayest go H1980 in peace: H7965 and the LORD H3068 be H1961 with H5973 thee, as H834 he hath been H1961 with H5973 my father. H1
14 And thou shalt not H3808 only while H518 yet H5750 I live H2416 show H6213 H5973 me the kindness H2617 of the LORD, H3068 that I die H4191 not: H3808
15 But also thou shalt not H3808 cut off thy kindness H2617 from H4480 H5973 my house H1004 forever H5704: H5769 no, not H3808 when the LORD H3068 hath cut off the enemies H341 of David H1732 every one H376 from the face H4480 H5921 H6440 of the earth. H127
16 So Jonathan H3083 made H3772 a covenant with H5973 the house H1004 of David, H1732 saying , Let the LORD H3068 even require H1245 it at the hand H4480 H3027 of David's H1732 enemies. H341
17 And Jonathan H3083 caused H853 David H1732 to swear H7650 again, H3254 because he loved H160 him: for H3588 he loved H157 him as he loved H160 his own soul. H5315
18 Then Jonathan H3083 said H559 to David, Tomorrow H4279 is the new moon: H2320 and thou shalt be missed, H6485 because H3588 thy seat H4186 will be empty. H6485
19 And when thou hast stayed three days, H8027 then thou shalt go down H3381 quickly, H3966 and come H935 to H413 the place H4725 where H834 thou didst hide thyself H5641 when H8033 H3117 the business H4639 was in hand , and shalt remain H3427 by H681 the stone H68 Ezel. H237
20 And I H589 will shoot H3384 three H7969 arrows H2671 on the side H6654 thereof , as though I shot H7971 at a mark. H4307
21 And, behold, H2009 I will send H7971 H853 a lad, H5288 saying , Go, H1980 find out H4672 H853 the arrows. H2671 If H518 I expressly say H559 H559 unto the lad, H5288 Behold, H2009 the arrows H2671 are on this side H4480 H2008 of thee, take H3947 them ; then come H935 thou: for H3588 there is peace H7965 to thee , and no H369 hurt; H1697 as the LORD H3068 liveth. H2416
22 But if H518 I say H559 thus H3541 unto the young man, H5958 Behold, H2009 the arrows H2671 are beyond H4480 H1973 thee ; go thy way: H1980 for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath sent thee away. H7971
23 And as touching the matter H1697 which H834 thou H859 and I H589 have spoken H1696 of, behold, H2009 the LORD H3068 be between H996 thee and me forever H5704 H5769 .
24 So David H1732 hid himself H5641 in the field: H7704 and when the new moon H2320 was come, H1961 the king H4428 sat him down H3427 to eat H398 meat. H3899
25 And the king H4428 sat H3427 upon H5921 his seat, H4186 as at other times H6471 H6471 , even upon H413 a seat H4186 by the wall: H7023 and Jonathan H3083 arose, H6965 and Abner H74 sat H3427 by Saul's H7586 side H4480 H6654 , and David's H1732 place H4725 was empty. H6485
26 Nevertheless Saul H7586 spoke H1696 not H3808 any thing H3972 that H1931 day: H3117 for H3588 he thought, H559 Something hath befallen H4745 him, he H1931 is not H1115 clean; H2889 surely H3588 he is not H3808 clean. H2889
27 And it came to pass H1961 on the morrow H4480 H4283 , which was the second H8145 day of the month, H2320 that David's H1732 place H4725 was empty: H6485 and Saul H7586 said H559 unto H413 Jonathan H3083 his son, H1121 Wherefore H4069 cometh H935 not H3808 the son H1121 of Jesse H3448 to H413 meat, H3899 neither H1571 yesterday, H8543 nor H1571 today H3117 ?
28 And Jonathan H3083 answered H6030 H853 Saul, H7586 David H1732 earnestly asked H7592 H7592 leave of H4480 H5973 me to go to H5704 Bethlehem: H1035
29 And he said, H559 Let me go, H7971 I pray thee; H4994 for H3588 our family H4940 hath a sacrifice H2077 in the city; H5892 and my brother, H251 he H1931 hath commanded H6680 me to be there : and now, H6258 if H518 I have found H4672 favor H2580 in thine eyes, H5869 let me get away, H4422 I pray thee, H4994 and see H7200 H853 my brethren. H251 Therefore H5921 H3651 he cometh H935 not H3808 unto H413 the king's H4428 table. H7979
30 Then Saul's H7586 anger H639 was kindled H2734 against Jonathan, H3083 and he said H559 unto him , Thou son H1121 of the perverse H5753 rebellious H4780 woman , do not H3808 I know H3045 that H3588 thou H859 hast chosen H977 the son H1121 of Jesse H3448 to thine own confusion, H1322 and unto the confusion H1322 of thy mother's H517 nakedness H6172 ?
31 For H3588 as long H3605 H3117 as H834 the son H1121 of Jesse H3448 liveth H2416 upon H5921 the ground, H127 thou H859 shalt not H3808 be established, H3559 nor thy kingdom. H4438 Wherefore now H6258 send H7971 and fetch H3947 H853 him unto H413 me, for H3588 he H1931 shall surely die H1121 H4194 .
32 And Jonathan H3083 answered H6030 H853 Saul H7586 his father, H1 and said H559 unto H413 him, Wherefore H4100 shall he be slain H4191 ? what H4100 hath he done H6213 ?
33 And Saul H7586 cast H2904 H853 a javelin H2595 at H5921 him to smite H5221 him : whereby Jonathan H3083 knew H3045 that H3588 it H1931 was determined H3615 of H4480 H5973 his father H1 to slay H4191 H853 David. H1732
34 So Jonathan H3083 arose H6965 from H4480 H5973 the table H7979 in fierce H2750 anger, H639 and did eat H398 no H3808 meat H3899 the second H8145 day H3117 of the month: H2320 for H3588 he was grieved H6087 for H413 David, H1732 because H3588 his father H1 had done him shame. H3637
35 And it came to pass H1961 in the morning, H1242 that Jonathan H3083 went out H3318 into the field H7704 at the time appointed H4150 with David, H1732 and a little H6996 lad H5288 with H5973 him.
36 And he said H559 unto his lad, H5288 Run, H7323 find out H4672 now H4994 H853 the arrows H2671 which H834 I H595 shoot. H3384 And as the lad H5288 ran, H7323 he H1931 shot H3384 an arrow H2678 beyond H5674 him.
37 And when the lad H5288 was come H935 to H5704 the place H4725 of the arrow H2678 which H834 Jonathan H3083 had shot, H3384 Jonathan H3083 cried H7121 after H310 the lad, H5288 and said, H559 Is not H3808 the arrow H2678 beyond H4480 H1973 thee?
38 And Jonathan H3083 cried H7121 after H310 the lad, H5288 Make speed, H2363 haste, H4120 stay H5975 not. H408 And Jonathan's H3083 lad H5288 gathered up H3950 H853 the arrows, H2678 and came H935 to H413 his master. H113
39 But the lad H5288 knew H3045 not H3808 any thing: H3972 only H389 Jonathan H3083 and David H1732 knew H3045 H853 the matter. H1697
40 And Jonathan H3083 gave H5414 H853 his artillery H3627 unto H413 his H834 lad, H5288 and said H559 unto him, Go, H1980 carry H935 them to the city. H5892
41 And as soon as the lad H5288 was gone, H935 David H1732 arose H6965 out of a place toward H4480 H681 the south, H5045 and fell H5307 on his face H639 to the ground, H776 and bowed himself H7812 three H7969 times: H6471 and they kissed H5401 one H376 H853 another, H7453 and wept H1058 one H376 with H854 another, H7453 until H5704 David H1732 exceeded. H1431
42 And Jonathan H3083 said H559 to David, H1732 Go H1980 in peace, H7965 forasmuch as H834 we have sworn H7650 both H8147 of us H587 in the name H8034 of the LORD, H3068 saying, H559 The LORD H3068 be H1961 between H996 me and thee , and between H996 my seed H2233 and thy seed H2233 forever H5704 H5769 . And he arose H6965 and departed: H1980 and Jonathan H3083 went H935 into the city. H5892
