25 E o rei se sentou em sua cadeira, como costumava, no assento junto à parede, e Jônatas se levantou, e sentou-se Abner ao lado de Saul, e o lugar de Davi estava vazio.

26 Mas aquele dia Saul não disse nada, porque se dizia: Haverá lhe acontecido algo, e não está limpo; não estará purificado.

27 O dia seguinte, o segundo dia da lua nova, aconteceu também que o assento de Davi estava vazio. E Saul disse a Jônatas seu filho: Por que não veio a comer o filho de Jessé hoje nem ontem?

28 E Jônatas respondeu a Saul: Davi me pediu encarecidamente lhe deixasse ir até Belém.

29 E disse: Rogo-te que me deixes ir, porque temos sacrifício os de nossa linhagem na cidade, e meu irmão mesmo me mandou; portanto, se achei graça em teus olhos, farei uma escapada agora, e visitarei a meus irmãos. Por isto, pois, não veio.
