1 Samuel 20:16 in Context — 1 Samuel 20
14 E se eu viver, farás comigo misericórdia do SENHOR; mas se for morto,
15 Não tirarás perpetuamente tua misericórdia de minha casa, nem quando o SENHOR exterminar um por um os inimigos de Davi da face da terra.
16 Assim Jônatas fez aliança com a casa de Davi, dizendo: O SENHOR o exija da mão dos inimigos de Davi.
17 E voltou Jônatas a jurar a Davi, porque o amava, porque o amava como à sua alma.
18 Disse-lhe logo Jônatas: Amanhã é lua nova, e tua falta será percebida, porque teu assento estará vazio.
