1 Samuel 20:23-25

Revised Standard Version

²³ And as for the matter of which you and I have spoken, behold, the Lord is between you and me for ever.”

²⁴ So David hid himself in the field; and when the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food. ²⁵ The king sat upon his seat, as at other times, upon the seat by the wall; Jonathan sat opposite,^[a] and Abner sat by Saul’s side, but David’s place was empty.
