1 Samuel 20:2-4

Expanded Bible

² Jonathan answered, “·No [Never; Far from it]! You won’t die! See, my father doesn’t do anything ·great or small [important or unimportant] without first ·telling [confiding in] me. Why would he ·keep [hide] this from me? It’s not true!”

³ But David ·took an oath [vowed; swore], saying, “Your father knows very well that ·you like me [^LI have found favor in your sight]. He says to himself, ‘Jonathan must not know about it, or he will be ·upset [hurt; grieved].’ As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I am only a step away from death!”

⁴ Jonathan said to David, “I’ll do ·anything you want me to do [^Lfor you whatever you say].”
