1 Samuel 20:6-8
English Standard Version
6 (A)If your father misses me at all, then say, ‘David earnestly asked leave of me to run (B)to Bethlehem his city, for there is a yearly (C)sacrifice there for all the clan.’ 7 If he says, ‘Good!’ it will be well with your servant, but if he is angry, then know that (D)harm is determined by him. 8 Therefore deal kindly with your servant, (E)for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the Lord with you. (F)But if there is guilt in me, kill me yourself, for why should you bring me to your father?”
