14 You shall not only while yet I live show me the loving kindness of Yahweh, that I not die;
15 but also you shall not cut off your kindness from my house forever; no, not when Yahweh has cut off the enemies of David everyone from the surface of the earth.
16 So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, [saying], Yahweh will require it at the hand of David's enemies.
17 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 to him, Tomorrow is the new moon: and you will be missed, because your seat will be empty.
