1 Samuel 23:16-18

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁶ Saul’s son Jonathan set out and came to David at Horesh. There he strengthened his hand in God. ¹⁷ He said to him, “Do not be afraid, because the hand of my father Saul will not find you. You will be king over Israel, and I will be second to you. Even my father Saul knows that.” ¹⁸ They both made a covenant before the Lord. Then David stayed at Horesh, and Jonathan returned home.
