8. Therefore deal kindly with your servant, for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the Lord with you. But if there is guilt in me, kill me yourself, for why should you bring me to your father?”
9. And Jonathan said, “Far be it from you! If I knew that it was determined by my father that harm should come to you, would I not tell you?”
10. Then David said to Jonathan, “Who will tell me if your father answers you roughly?”
11. And Jonathan said to David, “Come, let us go out into the field.” So they both went out into the field.
