19 The day after tomorrow, toward evening, go to the place where you hid(A) when this trouble began, and wait by the stone Ezel. 20 I will shoot three arrows(B) to the side of it, as though I were shooting at a target. 21 Then I will send a boy and say, ‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I say to him, ‘Look, the arrows are on this side of you; bring them here,’ then come, because, as surely as the Lord lives, you are safe; there is no danger.
