1 Samuel 20:16 ASV

¹⁴  And thou shalt not only while yet I live show me the lovingkindness of Jehovah, that I die not;

¹⁵  but also thou shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house for ever; no, not when Jehovah hath cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth.

¹⁶  So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, 'saying', And Jehovah will require it at the hand of David's enemies.

¹⁷  And Jonathan caused David to swear again, for the love that he had to him; for he loved him as he loved his own soul.

¹⁸  Then Jonathan said unto him, To-morrow is the new moon: and thou wilt be missed, because thy seat will be empty.
