1 Samuel 23:16 in Context — 1 Samuel 23

14 E Davi se estava no deserto em penhas, e habitava em um monte no deserto de Zife; e Saul o buscava todos os dias, mas Deus não o entregou em suas mãos.

15 Vendo, pois, Davi que Saul havia saído em busca de sua alma, estava-se ele no bosque no deserto de Zife.

16 Então se levantou Jônatas filho de Saul, e veio a Davi no bosque, e confortou sua mão em Deus.

17 E disse-lhe: Não temas, porque a mão de meu pai Saul não te achará, e tu reinarás sobre Israel, e eu serei segundo depois de ti; e ainda Saul meu pai assim o sabe.

18 E entre ambos fizeram aliança diante do SENHOR: e Davi se ficou no bosque, e Jônatas se voltou à sua casa.
