| 1st-Samuel 20:1 | And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? what is mine iniquity? and what is my sin before thy father, that he seeketh my life? | And David went in flight from Naioth in Ramah and came to Jonathan and said, What have I done? What is my crime and my sin against your father that he is attempting to take my life? | David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? what is my iniquity? and what is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life? | But David fled from Najoth, which is in Ramatha, and came and said to Jonathan: What have I done? what is my iniquity, and what is my sin against thy father, that he seeketh my life? |
| 1st-Samuel 20:2 | And he said unto him, Far from it; thou shalt not die: behold, my father doeth nothing either great or small, but that he discloseth it unto me; and why should my father hide this thing from me? it is not so. | And he said to him, Far be the thought: you will not be put to death: see, my father does nothing, great or small, without giving me word of it: would he keep this secret from me? It is not so. | He said to him, Far from it; you shall not die: behold, my father does nothing either great or small, but that he discloses it to me; and why should my father hide this thing from me? it is not so. | And he said to him: God forbid, thou shalt not die: for my father will do nothing great or little, without first telling me: hath then my father hid this word only from me? no, this shall not be. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:3 | And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father knoweth well that I have found favor in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death. | But David took his oath again and said, Your father sees that I am dear to you; so he says to himself, Let Jonathan have no idea of this, for it will be a grief to him; but as the Lord is living, and as your soul is living, there is only a step between me and death. | David swore moreover, and said, Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes; and he says, Don't let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death. | And he swore again to David. And David said: Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, and he will say: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:4 | Then said Jonathan unto David, Whatsoever thy soul desireth, I will even do it for thee. | Then Jonathan said to David, Whatever your desire is, I will do it for you. | Then said Jonathan to David, Whatever your soul desires, I will even do it for you. | And Jonathan said to David: Whatsoever thy soul shall say to me, I will do for thee. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:5 | And David said unto Jonathan, Behold, to-morrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third day at even. | And David said to Jonathan, Tomorrow is the new moon, and I will not be seated with the king at his table: but let me go to a safe place in the country till the evening. | David said to Jonathan, Behold, tomorrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field to the third day at even. | And David said to Jonathan: Behold to morrow is the new moon, and I according to custom am wont to sit beside the king to eat: let me go then that I may be hid in the field till the evening of the third day. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:6 | If thy father miss me at all, then say, David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Beth-lehem his city; for it is the yearly sacrifice there for all the family. | And if your father takes note of the fact that I am away, say, David made a request to me for himself that he might go to Beth-lehem, to his town: for it is the time when his family make their offering year by year. | If your father miss me at all, then say, David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Beth-lehem his city; for it is the yearly sacrifice there for all the family. | If thy father look and inquire for me, thou shalt answer him: David asked me that he might run to Bethlehem his own city: because there are solemn sacrifices there for all his tribe. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:7 | If he say thus, It is well; thy servant shall have peace: but if he be wroth, then know that evil is determined by him. | If he says, It is well, your servant will be at peace: but if he is angry, then it will be clear to you that he has an evil purpose in mind against me. | If he say thus, It is well; your servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, then know that evil is determined by him. | If he shall say, It is well: thy servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, know that his malice is come to its height. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:8 | Therefore deal kindly with thy servant; for thou hast brought thy servant into a covenant of Jehovah with thee: but if there be in me iniquity, slay me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring me to thy father? | So, then, be kind to your servant; for you have been united with your servant in an agreement made before the Lord: but if there is any wrongdoing in me, put me to death yourself; why take me to your father? | Therefore deal kindly with your servant; for you have brought your servant into a covenant of Yahweh with you: but if there be in me iniquity, kill me yourself; for why should you bring me to your father? | Deal mercifully then with thy servant: for thou hast brought me thy servant into a covenant of the Lord with thee. But if there be any iniquity in me, do thou kill me, and bring me not in to thy father. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:9 | And Jonathan said, Far be it from thee; for if I should at all know that evil were determined by my father to come upon thee, then would not I tell it thee? | And Jonathan said, Do not have such a thought: for if I saw that my father was designing evil against you, would I not give you word of it? | Jonathan said, Far be it from you; for if I should at all know that evil were determined by my father to come on you, then wouldn't I tell you that? | And Jonathan said: Far be this from thee: for if I should certainly know that evil is determined by my father against thee, I could do no otherwise than tell thee. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:10 | Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me if perchance thy father answer thee roughly? | Then David said to Jonathan, Who will give me word if your father gives you a rough answer? | Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me if perchance your father answer you roughly? | And David answered Jonathan: Who shall bring me word, if thy father should answer thee harshly concerning me? |
| 1st-Samuel 20:11 | And Jonathan said unto David, Come, and let us go out into the field. And they went out both of them into the field. | And Jonathan said to David, Come, let us go out into the country. And the two of them went out together into the open country. | Jonathan said to David, Come, and let us go out into the field. They went out both of them into the field. | And Jonathan said to David: Come and let us go out into the field. And when they were both of them gone out into the field, |
| 1st-Samuel 20:12 | And Jonathan said unto David, Jehovah, the God of Israel, [be witness]: when I have sounded my father about this time to-morrow, [or] the third day, behold, if there be good toward David, shall I not then send unto thee, and disclose it unto thee? | And Jonathan said to David, May the Lord, the God of Israel, be witness; when I have had a chance of talking to my father, about this time tomorrow, if his feelings to David are good, will I not send and give you the news? | Jonathan said to David, Yahweh, the God of Israel, [be witness]: when I have sounded my father about this time tomorrow, [or] the third day, behold, if there be good toward David, shall I not then send to you, and disclose it to you? | Jonathan said to David: O Lord God of Israel, if I shall discover my father's mind, to morrow or the day after, and there be any thing good for David, and I send not immediately to thee, and make it known to thee, |
| 1st-Samuel 20:13 | Jehovah do so to Jonathan, and more also, should it please my father to do thee evil, if I disclose it not unto thee, and send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace: and Jehovah be with thee, as he hath been with my father. | May the Lord's punishment be on Jonathan, if it is my father's pleasure to do you evil and I do not give you word of it and send you away so that you may go in peace: and may the Lord be with you, as he has been with my father. | Yahweh do so to Jonathan, and more also, should it please my father to do you evil, if I don't disclose it to you, and send you away, that you may go in peace: and Yahweh be with you, as he has been with my father. | May the Lord do so and so to Jonathan and add still more. But if my father shall continue in malice against thee, I will discover it to thy ear, and will send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace, and the Lord be with thee, as he hath been with my father. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:14 | And thou shalt not only while yet I live show me the lovingkindness of Jehovah, that I die not; | And may you, while I am still living, O may you be kind to me, as the Lord is kind, and keep me from death! | You shall not only while yet I live show me the lovingkindness of Yahweh, that I not die; | And if I live, thou shalt shew me the kindness of the Lord: but if I die, |
| 1st-Samuel 20:15 | but also thou shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house for ever; no, not when Jehovah hath cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth. | And let not your mercy ever be cut off from my family, even when the Lord has sent destruction on all David's haters, cutting them off from the face of the earth. | but also you shall not cut off your kindness from my house forever; no, not when Yahweh has cut off the enemies of David everyone from the surface of the earth. | Thou shalt not take away thy kindness from my house for ever, when the Lord shall have rooted out the enemies of David, every one of them from the earth, may he take away Jonathan from his house, and may the Lord require it at the hands of David's enemies. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:16 | So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, [saying], And Jehovah will require it at the hand of David's enemies. | And if it comes about that the name of Jonathan is cut off from the family of David, the Lord will make David responsible. | So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, [saying], Yahweh will require it at the hand of David's enemies. | Jonathan therefore made a covenant with the house of David: and the Lord required it at the hands of David's enemies. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:17 | And Jonathan caused David to swear again, for the love that he had to him; for he loved him as he loved his own soul. | And Jonathan again took an oath to David, because of his love for him: for David was as dear to him as his very soul. | Jonathan caused David to swear again, for the love that he had to him; for he loved him as he loved his own soul. | And Jonathan swore again to David, because he loved him: for he loved him as his own soul. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:18 | Then Jonathan said unto him, To-morrow is the new moon: and thou wilt be missed, because thy seat will be empty. | Then Jonathan said to him, Tomorrow is the new moon: and it will be seen that you are not present, for there will be no one in your seat. | Then Jonathan said to him, Tomorrow is the new moon: and you will be missed, because your seat will be empty. | And Jonathan said to him: To morrow is the new moon, and thou wilt be missed: |
| 1st-Samuel 20:19 | And when thou hast stayed three days, thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself when the business was in hand, and shalt remain by the stone Ezel. | And on the third day it will be specially noted, and you will go to the place where you took cover when the other business was in hand, waiting by the hill over there. | When you have stayed three days, you shall go down quickly, and come to the place where you did hide yourself when the business was in hand, and shall remain by the stone Ezel. | For thy seat will be empty till after tomorrow. So thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place, where thou must be hid on the day when it is lawful to work, and thou shalt remain beside the stone, which is called Ezel. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:20 | And I will shoot three arrows on the side thereof, as though I shot at a mark. | And on the third day I will send arrows from my bow against its side as if at a mark. | I will shoot three arrows on the side of it, as though I shot at a mark. | And I will shoot three arrows near it, and will shoot as if I were exercising myself at a mark. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:21 | And, behold, I will send the lad, [saying], Go, find the arrows. If I say unto the lad, Behold, the arrows are on this side of thee; take them, and come; for there is peace to thee and no hurt, as Jehovah liveth. | And I will send my boy to have a look for the arrow. And if I say to him, See, the arrow is on this side of you; take it up! then you may come; for there is peace for you and no evil, by the living Lord. | Behold, I will send the boy, [saying], Go, find the arrows. If I tell the boy, Behold, the arrows are on this side of you; take them, and come; for there is peace to you and no hurt, as Yahweh lives. | And I will send a boy, saying to him: Go and fetch me the arrows. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:22 | But if I say thus unto the boy, Behold, the arrows are beyond thee; go thy way; for Jehovah hath sent thee away. | But if I say to the boy, See, the arrow has gone past you: then go on your way, for the Lord has sent you away. | But if I say thus to the boy, Behold, the arrows are beyond you; go your way; for Yahweh has sent you away. | If I shall say to the boy: Behold the arrows are on this side of thee, take them up: come thou to me, because, there is peace to thee, and there is no evil, as the Lord liveth. But if I shall speak thus to the boy: Behold the arrows are beyond thee: go in peace, for the Lord hath sent thee away. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:23 | And as touching the matter which thou and I have spoken of, behold, Jehovah is between thee and me for ever. | As for what you and I were talking of, the Lord is between you and me for ever. | As touching the matter which you and I have spoken of, behold, Yahweh is between you and me forever. | And concerning the word which I and thou have spoken, the Lord be between thee and me for ever. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:24 | So David hid himself in the field: and when the new moon was come, the king sat him down to eat food. | So David went to a secret place in the country: and when the new moon came, the king took his place at the feast. | So David hid himself in the field: and when the new moon was come, the king sat him down to eat food. | So David was hid in the field, and the new moon came, and the king sat down to eat bread. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:25 | And the king sat upon his seat, as at other times, even upon the seat by the wall; and Jonathan stood up, and Abner sat by Saul's side: but David's place was empty. | And the king took his seat, as at other times, by the wall: and Jonathan was in front, and Abner was seated by Saul's side, but there was no one in David's seat. | The king sat on his seat, as at other times, even on the seat by the wall; and Jonathan stood up, and Abner sat by Saul's side: but David's place was empty. | And when the king sat down upon his chair (according to custom) which was beside the wall, Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, and David's place appeared empty. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:26 | Nevertheless Saul spake not anything that day: for he thought, Something hath befallen him, he is not clean; surely he is not clean. | But Saul said nothing that day, for his thought was, Something has taken place making him unclean; it is clear that he is not clean. | Nevertheless Saul didn't say anything that day: for he thought, Something has befallen him, he is not clean; surely he is not clean. | And Saul said nothing that day, for he thought it might have happened to him, that he was not clean, nor purified. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:27 | And it came to pass on the morrow after the new moon, [which was] the second [day], that David's place was empty: and Saul said unto Jonathan his son, Wherefore cometh not the son of Jesse to meat, neither yesterday, nor to-day? | And on the day after the new moon, that is, the second day, there was still no one in David's seat: and Saul said to his son Jonathan, Why has the son of Jesse not come to the feast yesterday or today? | It happened on the next day after the new moon, [which was] the second [day], that David's place was empty: and Saul said to Jonathan his son, Why doesn't the son of Jesse come to meat, neither yesterday, nor today? | And when the second day after the new moon was come, David's place appeared empty again. And Saul said to Jonathan his son: Why cometh not the son of Isai to meat neither yesterday nor to day? |
| 1st-Samuel 20:28 | And Jonathan answered Saul, David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Beth-lehem: | And answering Saul, Jonathan said, He made a request to me that he might go to Beth-lehem, | Jonathan answered Saul, David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Beth-lehem: | And Jonathan answered Saul: He asked leave of me earnestly to go to Bethlehem, |
| 1st-Samuel 20:29 | and he said, Let me go, I pray thee; for our family hath a sacrifice in the city; and my brother, he hath commanded me [to be there]: and now, if I have found favor in thine eyes, let me get away, I pray thee, and see my brethren. Therefore he is not come unto the king's table. | Saying, Our family is making an offering in the town, and my brothers have given me orders to be there: so now, if I have grace in your eyes, let me go away and see my brothers. This is why he has not come to the king's table. | and he said, Please let me go, for our family has a sacrifice in the city; and my brother, he has commanded me [to be there]: and now, if I have found favor in your eyes, let me get away, I pray you, and see my brothers. Therefore he is not come to the king's table. | And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:30 | Then Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said unto him, Thou son of a perverse rebellious woman, do not I know that thou hast chosen the son of Jesse to thine own shame, and unto the shame of thy mother's nakedness? | Then Saul was moved to wrath against Jonathan, and he said to him, You son of an evil and uncontrolled woman, have I not seen how you have given your love to the son of Jesse, to your shame and the shame of your mother? | Then Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said to him, You son of a perverse rebellious woman, don't I know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame, and to the shame of your mother's nakedness? | Then Saul being angry against Jonathan said to him: Thou son of a woman that is the ravisher of a man, do I not know that thou lovest the son of Isai to thy own confusion and to the confusion of thy shameless mother? |
| 1st-Samuel 20:31 | For as long as the son of Jesse liveth upon the ground, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Wherefore now send and fetch him unto me, for he shall surely die. | For while the son of Jesse is living on the earth, your position is unsafe and your kingdom is in danger. So make him come here to me, for it is certainly right for him to be put to death. | For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, you shall not be established, nor your kingdom. Why now send and bring him to me, for he shall surely die. | For as long as the son of Isai liveth upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now presently send, and fetch him to me: for he is the son of death. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:32 | And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said unto him, Wherefore should he be put to death? what hath he done? | And Jonathan, answering his father Saul, said to him, Why is he to be put to death? What has he done? | Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said to him, Why should he be put to death? what has he done? | And Jonathan answering Saul his father, said: Why shall he die: what hath he done? |
| 1st-Samuel 20:33 | And Saul cast his spear at him to smite him; whereby Jonathan knew that is was determined of his father to put David to death. | And Saul, pointing his spear at him, made an attempt to give him a wound: from which it was clear to Jonathan that his father's purpose was to put David to death. | Saul cast his spear at him to strike him; whereby Jonathan knew that is was determined of his father to put David to death. | And Saul caught up a spear to strike him. And Jonathan understood that it was determined by his father to kill David. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:34 | So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and did eat no food the second day of the month; for he was grieved for David, because his father had done him shame. | So Jonathan got up from the table, burning with wrath, and took no part in the feast the second day of the month, being full of grief for David because his father had put shame on him. | So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and ate no food the second day of the month; for he was grieved for David, because his father had done him shame. | So Jonathan rose from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second day after the new moon. For he was grieved for David, because his father had put him to confusion. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:35 | And it came to pass in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little lad with him. | Now in the morning, Jonathan went out into the fields at the time he had said to David, and he had a little boy with him. | It happened in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little boy with him. | And when the morning came, Jonathan went into the field, according to the appointment with David, and a little boy with him. |

| 1st-Samuel 20:37 | And when the lad was come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the lad, and said, Is not the arrow beyond thee? | And when the boy came to the place where the arrow was, Jonathan, crying out after the boy, said, Has it not gone past you? | When the boy was come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the boy, and said, Isn't the arrow beyond you? | The boy therefore came to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot: and Jonathan cried after the boy, and said: Behold the arrow is there further beyond thee. |
| 1st-Samuel 20:38 | And Jonathan cried after the lad, Make speed, haste, stay not. And Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows, and came to his master. | And Jonathan went on crying out after the boy, Be quick, do not keep waiting about, go quickly. And Jonathan's boy got the arrow and came back to his master. | Jonathan cried after the boy, Go fast! Hurry! Don't delay! Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and came to his master. | And Jonathan cried again after the boy, saying: Make haste speedily, stand not. And Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and brought them to his master: |
| 1st-Samuel 20:39 | But the lad knew not anything: only Jonathan and David knew the matter. | But the boy had no idea what was going on; only Jonathan and David had knowledge of it. | But the boy didn't know anything: only Jonathan and David knew the matter. | And he knew not at all what was doing: for only Jonathan and David knew the matter. |

| 1st-Samuel 20:42 | And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, forasmuch as we have sworn both of us in the name of Jehovah, saying, Jehovah shall be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed, for ever. And he arose and departed: and Jonathan went into the city. | And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, for we two have taken an oath, in the name of the Lord, saying, The Lord will be between me and you, and between my seed and your seed for ever.
