And Saul spoke to his son Jonathan, and to all his servants, to kill David.

And Saul's son Jonathan delighted exceedingly in David. And Jonathan told David, saying, My father Saul is seeking to kill you. And, now, please be on guard in the morning, and you shall stay in the secret place, and shall hide.

And I, I will go out and will stand by my father's side in the field where you are . And I will speak of you to my father, and shall see what it is , and will tell you.

And Jonathan spoke good of David to his father Saul, and said to him, Do not let the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has not sinned against you; also because his works for you are very good.

Yea, he has put his life in his hand and killed the Philistine. And Jehovah worked a great deliverance for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced. And why do you sin against innocent blood, to put David to death for no reason?

And Saul listened to Jonathan's voice, and Saul swore, As Jehovah lives he shall not die.

And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these words. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was before him as yesterday and the day before.
