1 Samuel 20:11-13

Christian Standard Bible

¹¹ He answered David, “Come on, let’s go out to the countryside.” So both of them went out to the countryside. ¹² “By the Lord, the God of Israel, I will sound out my father by this time tomorrow or the next day. If I find out that he is favorable toward you, will I not send for you and tell you? ¹³ If my father intends to bring evil on you, may the Lord punish Jonathan and do so severely^(A) if I do not tell you and send you away so you may leave safely. May the Lord be with you,^(B) just as he was with my father.
