1 Samuel 20:2-4
International Standard Version
2 Jonathan[a] told him, “Far from it! You won’t die. Look, my father never does anything, great or small, without telling me;[b] so why should my father hide this thing from me? It’s not like that!”
3 David again took an oath: “Your father certainly knows that I’ve found favor with you, and so he told himself,[c] ‘Jonathan must not know this so he won’t be upset.’ But as certainly as the Lord is alive and living, and as certainly as I’m alive and living, too, there is only a step between me and death.”
4 Jonathan told David, “Whatever you say, I’ll do.”
