19 Estarás, pois, três dias, e logo descerás, e virás ao lugar de onde estavas escondido o dia do incidente, e esperarás junto à pedra de Ezel;

20 E eu atirarei três flechas até aquele lado, como que me exercitando ao alvo.

21 E logo enviarei o criado dizendo-lhe: Vai, busca as flechas. E se disser ao jovem: Eis ali as flechas mais aqui de ti, toma-as: tu virás, porque tens paz, e nada há de mal, vive o SENHOR.

22 Mas se eu disser ao jovem assim: Eis ali as flechas mais ali de ti: vai-te, porque o SENHOR te enviou.

23 E quanto às palavras que eu e tu falamos, seja o SENHOR entre mim e ti para sempre.
