1 Samuel 20:40 in Context — 1 Samuel 20

38 Y tornó á gritar Jonathán tras el muchacho: Date priesa, aligera, no te pares. Y el muchacho de Jonathán cogió las saetas, y vínose á su señor.

39 Empero ninguna cosa entendió el muchacho: solamente Jonathán y David entendían el negocio.

40 Luego dió Jonathán sus armas á su muchacho, y díjole: Vete y llévalas á la ciudad.

41 Y luego que el muchacho se hubo ido, se levantó David de la parte del mediodía, é inclinóse tres veces postrándose hasta la tierra: y besándose el uno al otro, lloraron el uno con el otro, aunque David lloró más.

42 Y Jonathán dijo á David: Vete en paz, que ambos hemos jurado por el nombre de Jehová, diciendo: Jehová sea entre mí y ti, entre mi simiente y la simiente tuya, para siempre. Y él se levantó y fuése: y Jonathán se entró en la ciudad.
