1 Samuel 20:31 in Context — 1 Samuel 20
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.
30 Então Saul se acendeu contra Jônatas, e disse-lhe: Filho da pervertida e rebelde! Não sei eu que tu escolheste ao filho de Jessé para vergonha tua, e para vergonha da nudez de tua mãe?
31 Porque todo o tempo que o filho de Jessé viver sobre a terra, nem tu serás firme, nem teu reino. Envia, pois, agora, e traze-o a mim, porque morrerá.
32 E Jônatas respondeu a seu pai Saul, e disse-lhe: Por que morrerá? O que ele fez?
33 Então Saul lhe lançou uma lança para feri-lo: de onde entendeu Jônatas que seu pai estava determinado a matar a Davi.
