1 Samuel 20:40 In-Context

38 clamavitque Ionathan post tergum pueri festina velociter ne steteris collegit autem puer Ionathae sagittas et adtulit ad dominum suum

39 et quid ageretur penitus ignorabat tantummodo enim Ionathan et David rem noverant

40 dedit igitur Ionathan arma sua puero et dixit ei vade defer in civitatem

41 cumque abisset puer surrexit David de loco qui vergebat ad austrum et cadens pronus in terram adoravit tertio et osculantes alterutrum fleverunt pariter David autem amplius

42 dixit ergo Ionathan ad David vade in pace quaecumque iuravimus ambo in nomine Domini dicentes Dominus sit inter me et te et inter semen meum et semen tuum usque in sempiternum
