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.

19 E subiram os de Zife a dizer a Saul em Gibeá: Não está Davi escondido em nossa terra nas penhas do bosque, no morro de Haquilá que está à direita do deserto?

20 Portanto, rei, desce agora logo, segundo todo aquele desejo de tua alma, e nós o entregaremos na mão do rei.
