1 Samuel 20:31-36 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

31. For all the days that the son of Jesse moves upon earth, neither you, nor your kingdom, will be secure. And so, send and bring him to me, here and now. For he is a son of death."

32. Then Jonathan, answering his father Saul, said: "Why should he die? What has he done?"

33. And Saul picked up a lance, so that he might strike him. And Jonathan understood that it had been decided by his father that David be put to death.

34. Therefore, Jonathan rose up from the table in a rage of anger. And he did not eat bread on the second day after the new moon. For he was saddened over David, because his father had confounded him.

35. And when the morning had begun to dawn, Jonathan went into the field according to the agreement with David, and a young boy was with him.

36. And he said to his boy, "Go, and bring to me the arrows that I shoot." And when the boy had run, he shot another arrow away from the boy.
