14And may you, while I am still living, O may you be kind to me, as the Lord is kind, and keep me from death!
15And let not your mercy ever be cut off from my family, even when the Lord has sent destruction on all David's haters, cutting them off from the face of the earth.
16And if it comes about that the name of Jonathan is cut off from the family of David, the Lord will make David responsible.
17And Jonathan again took an oath to David, because of his love for him: for David was as dear to him as his very soul.
18Then Jonathan said to him, Tomorrow is the new moon: and it will be seen that you are not present, for there will be no one in your seat.
19And on the third day it will be specially noted, and you will go to the place where you took cover when the other business was in hand, waiting by the hill over there.
20And on the third day I will send arrows from my bow against its side as if at a mark.
