- 掃羅對他兒子約拿單和眾臣僕說、要殺大衛。掃羅的兒子約拿單、卻甚喜愛大衛。
- 約拿單告訴大衛說、我父掃羅想要殺你.所以明日早晨你要小心、到一個僻靜地方藏身.
- 我就出到你所藏的田裡、站在我父親旁邊、與他談論.我看他情形怎樣、我必告訴你。
- 約拿單向他父親掃羅替大衛說好話、說、王不可得罪王的僕人大衛.因為他未曾得罪你、他所行的、都與你大有益處。
- 他拚命殺那非利士人、耶和華為以色列眾人大行拯救.那時你看見、甚是歡喜.現在為何無故要殺大衛、流無辜人的血、自己取罪呢。

- And Saul spake to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David.
- But Jonathan Saul's son delighted much in David: and Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee: now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:
- And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will commune with my father of thee; and what I see, that I will tell thee.
- And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works have been to thee-ward very good:
- For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?
