1 Samuel 20:36 in Context — 1 Samuel 20

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.

35 Le lendemain matin, Jonathan alla dans les champs au lieu convenu avec David, et il était accompagné d’un petit garçon.

36 Il lui dit: Cours, trouve les flèches que je vais tirer. Le garçon courut, et Jonathan tira une flèche qui le dépassa.

37 Lorsqu’il arriva au lieu où était la flèche que Jonathan avait tirée, Jonathan cria derrière lui: La flèche n’est-elle pas plus loin que toi?

38 Il lui cria encore: Vite, hâte-toi, ne t’arrête pas! Et le garçon de Jonathan ramassa les flèches et revint vers son maître.
