1 Samuel 20:32 in Context — 1 Samuel 20

30 Alors la colère de Saül s’enflamma contre Jonathan, et il lui dit: Fils pervers et rebelle, ne sais je pas que tu as pour ami le fils d’Isaï, à ta honte et à la honte de ta mère?

31 Car aussi longtemps que le fils d’Isaï sera vivant sur la terre, il n’y aura point de sécurité ni pour toi ni pour ta royauté. Et maintenant, envoie-le chercher, et qu’on me l’amène, car il est digne de mort.

32 Jonathan répondit à Saül, son père, et lui dit: Pourquoi le ferait-on mourir? Qu’a-t-il fait?

33 Et Saül dirigea sa lance contre lui, pour le frapper. Jonathan comprit que c’était chose résolue chez son père que de faire mourir David.

34 Il se leva de table dans une ardente colère, et ne participa point au repas le second jour de la nouvelle lune; car il était affligé à cause de David, parce que son père l’avait outragé.
