1 Samuel 20:18-22
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 20
18
Then Jonathan said to him, 'Tomorrow is the new moon, and you will be missed since your seat will be empty.
19
When you have stayed for three days, you shall go down quickly and come to the place where you hid yourself on that eventful day, and you shall remain beside the stone Ezel.
20
And I will shoot three arrows to the side, as though I shot at a target.
21
Then behold, I will send the boy,
telling him,
‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I specifically say to the boy, ‘Behold, the arrows are on this side of you, get them,’ then come, because it is safe for you and there is nothing
to harm you,
as the
Lord
lives.
22
But if I say to the youth, ‘Behold, the arrows are beyond you,’ go, because the
Lord
has sent you away.
King James Version
Chapter 20
18
Then Jonathan said to David, To morrow is the new moon: and thou shalt be missed, because thy seat will be empty.
19
And when thou hast stayed three days, then thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself when the business was in hand, and shalt remain by the stone Ezel.
20
And I will shoot three arrows on the side thereof, as though I shot at a mark.
21
And, behold, I will send a lad, saying, Go, find out the arrows. If I expressly say unto the lad, Behold, the arrows are on this side of thee, take them; then come thou: for there is peace to thee, and no hurt; as the
Lord
liveth.
22
But if I say thus unto the young man, Behold, the arrows are beyond thee; go thy way: for the
Lord
hath sent thee away.

18
Then Jonathan said to him, "Tomorrow is the New Moon; you’ll be missed because your seat will be empty.
19
The following day hurry down and go to the place where you hid on the day this incident began and stay beside the rock Ezel.
20
I will shoot three arrows beside it as if I’m aiming at a target.
21
Then I will send a servant and say, ‘Go and find the arrows!’ Now, if I expressly say to the servant, ‘Look, the arrows are on this side of you—get them,’ then come, because as the
Lord
lives, it is safe for you and there is no problem.
22
But if I say this to the youth, ‘Look, the arrows are beyond you!’ then go, for the
Lord
is sending you away.
New Living Translation
Chapter 20
18
Then Jonathan said, 'Tomorrow we celebrate the new moon festival. You will be missed when your place at the table is empty.
19
The day after tomorrow, toward evening, go to the place where you hid before, and wait there by the stone pile.
20
I will come out and shoot three arrows to the side of the stone pile as though I were shooting at a target.
21
Then I will send a boy to bring the arrows back. If you hear me tell him, ‘They’re on this side,’ then you will know, as surely as the
Lord
lives, that all is well, and there is no trouble.
22
But if I tell him, ‘Go farther — the arrows are still ahead of you,’ then it will mean that you must leave immediately, for the
Lord
is sending you away.

Lord
lives, it is safe for you and there is no danger.
22

Lord
has sent you away.

And
when
you have stayed three days, go down quickly and come to the place where you hid on the day of the deed; and remain by the stone Ezel.

21

are
on this side of you; get them and come’—then, as the
Lord
lives,
there is
safety for you and no harm.
22
But if I say thus to the young man, ‘Look, the arrows
are
beyond you’—go your way, for the
Lord
has sent you away.
