1 Samuel 19:5 in Context — 1 Samuel 19
3 Je sortirai et je me tiendrai à côté de mon père dans le champ où tu seras; je parlerai de toi à mon père, je verrai ce qu’il dira, et je te le rapporterai.
4 Jonathan parla favorablement de David à Saül, son père: Que le roi, dit-il, ne commette pas un péché à l’égard de son serviteur David, car il n’en a point commis envers toi. Au contraire, il a agi pour ton bien;
5 il a exposé sa vie, il a tué le Philistin, et l’Éternel a opéré une grande délivrance pour tout Israël. Tu l’as vu, et tu t’en es réjoui. Pourquoi pécherais-tu contre le sang innocent, et ferais-tu sans raison mourir David?
6 Saül écouta la voix de Jonathan, et il jura, disant: L’Éternel est vivant! David ne mourra pas.
7 Jonathan appela David, et lui rapporta toutes ces paroles; puis il l’amena auprès de Saül, en présence de qui David fut comme auparavant.
