1 Samuel 20:2-4
American Standard Version
2 And he said unto him, Far from it; thou shalt not die: behold, my father doeth nothing either great or small, but that he [a]discloseth it unto me; and why should my father hide this thing from me? it is not so. 3 And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father knoweth well that I have found favor in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death. 4 Then said Jonathan unto David, [b]Whatsoever thy soul [c]desireth, I will even do it for thee.
