36. Jonathan said to the boy, “Run and find the arrows I shoot.” When he ran, Jonathan shot an arrow beyond him.
37. The boy ran to the place where Jonathan’s arrow fell. But Jonathan called, “The arrow is beyond you!”
38. Then he shouted, “Hurry! Go quickly! Don’t stop!” The boy picked up the arrow and brought it back to his master.
39. (The boy knew nothing about what this meant. Only Jonathan and David knew.)
40. Then Jonathan gave his weapons to the boy. He told him, “Go back to town.”
41. When the boy left, David came out from the south side of the rock. He bowed facedown on the ground before Jonathan. He did this three times. Then David and Jonathan kissed each other. They cried together, but David cried the most.
