1 Samuel 20:21-24
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 20
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.
23
As for the agreement of which you and I have spoken, behold, the
Lord
is between you and me forever.'
24
So David hid himself in the field; and when the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food.
King James Version
Chapter 20
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.
23
And as touching the matter which thou and I have spoken of, behold, the
Lord
be between thee and me for ever.
24
So David hid himself in the field: and when the new moon was come, the king sat him down to eat meat.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 20
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.
23
As for the matter you and I have spoken about, the
Lord
will be a witness between you and me forever."
24
So David hid in the countryside. At the New Moon, the king sat down to eat the meal.
New Living Translation
Chapter 20
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.
23
And may the
Lord
make us keep our promises to each other, for he has witnessed them.'
24
So David hid himself in the field, and when the new moon festival began, the king sat down to eat.
English Standard Version
Chapter 20
21
And behold, I will send the boy, saying, ‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I say to the boy, ‘Look, the arrows are on this side of you, take them,’ then you are to come, for, as the
Lord
lives, it is safe for you and there is no danger.
22
But if I say to the youth, ‘Look, the arrows are beyond you,’ then go, for the
Lord
has sent you away.
23
And as for the matter of which you and I have spoken, behold, the
Lord
is between you and me forever."
24
So David hid himself in the field. And when the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food.
New International Version
Chapter 20
21
Then I will send a boy and say, ‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I say to him, ‘Look, the arrows are on this side of you; bring them here,’ then come, because, as surely as the
Lord
lives, you are safe; there is no danger.
22
But if I say to the boy, ‘Look, the arrows are beyond you,’ then you must go, because the
Lord
has sent you away.
23
And about the matter you and I discussed—remember, the
Lord
is witness between you and me forever."
24
So David hid in the field, and when the New Moon feast came, the king sat down to eat.
New King James Version
Chapter 20
21
and there I will send a lad,
saying,
‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I expressly say to the lad, ‘Look, the arrows
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.
23
And as for the matter which you and I have spoken of, indeed the
Lord
be
between you and me forever.”
24
Then David hid in the field. And when the New Moon had come, the king sat down to eat the feast.
