1 Samuel 23:16-18
Christian Standard Bible
16 Then Saul’s son Jonathan came to David in Horesh and encouraged him in his faith[a] in God,(A) 17 saying, “Don’t be afraid, for my father Saul will never lay a hand on you. You yourself will be king over Israel,(B) and I’ll be your second-in-command. Even my father Saul knows it is true.”(C) 18 Then the two of them made a covenant in the Lord’s presence.(D) Afterward, David remained in Horesh, while Jonathan went home.
