41. As soon as the boy was gone, David arose out of the south, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times. They kissed one another, and wept one with another, and David wept the most.
42. Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, because we have both sworn in the Lord’s name, saying, ‘The Lord is between me and you, and between my offspring and your offspring, forever.’” He arose and departed; and Jonathan went into the city.
