1 Samuel 20:11-13

Expanded Bible

¹¹ Then Jonathan said [^Lto David], “Come, let’s go out into the field.” So the two of them went out into the field.

¹² Jonathan said to David, “·I promise this before [^LBy] the Lord, the God of Israel: ·At [By] this same time ·the day after tomorrow [or tomorrow or the next day], I will ·find out how my father feels [sound out my father]. If he feels good toward you, I will send word to you and let you know. ¹³ But if my father plans to ·hurt [harm; kill] you, I will let you know and send you away safely. May the Lord ·punish me terribly [^Ldeal severely with me, and worse,] if I don’t do this. And may the Lord be with you as he ·has been [used to be] with my father.
