Saul ordered his son Jonathan and all his servants to kill David. But Saul’s son Jonathan liked David very much,
so he told him, ‘My father, Saul, intends to kill you. Be on your guard in the morning and hide in a secret place and stay there.
Then Jonathan said to him, ‘Tomorrow is the New Moon; you’ll be missed because your seat will be empty.
In the morning Jonathan went out to the countryside for the appointed meeting with David. A young servant was with him.
So David told him, ‘Look, tomorrow is the New Moon, and I’m supposed to sit down and eat with the king. Instead, let me go, and I’ll hide in the countryside for the next two nights. ,
