1 Samuel 23:14-18

1 Samuel 23:14-18 MEV

And David remained in the wilderness in strongholds, and dwelt in mountains in the Wilderness of Ziph. Saul sought him every day, but God did not give him into his hand. Now David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life. And David was in the Wilderness of Ziph in Horesh. Jonathan, the son of Saul, arose and went to David at Horesh. And he strengthened his hand in God. He said to him, “Do not fear, for the hand of Saul my father will not find you. You will be king over Israel, and I will be next to you. Saul my father knows this.” The two of them made a covenant before the LORD. And David stayed in Horesh, but Jonathan went to his house.
