וְלֹא אִם־עוֹדֶנִּי חָי וְלֹֽא־תַעֲשֶׂה עִמָּדִי חֶסֶד יְהוָה וְלֹא אָמֽוּת
And thou shalt not only while yet I live show me the kindness of the LORD, that I die not;
וְלֹֽא־תַכְרִת אֶֽת־חַסְדְּךָ מֵעִם בֵּיתִי עַד־עוֹלָם וְלֹא בְּהַכְרִת יְהוָה אֶת־אֹיְבֵי דָוִד אִישׁ מֵעַל פְּנֵי הָאֲדָמָֽה
but also thou shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house for ever; no, not when the LORD hath cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth.’
וַיִּכְרֹת יְהוֹנָתָן עִם־בֵּית דָּוִד וּבִקֵּשׁ יְהוָה מִיַּד אֹיְבֵי דָוִֽד
So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David: ‘The LORD even require it at the hand of David’s enemies.’
וַיּוֹסֶף יְהֽוֹנָתָן לְהַשְׁבִּיעַ אֶת־דָּוִד בְּאַהֲבָתוֹ אֹתוֹ כִּֽי־אַהֲבַת נַפְשׁוֹ אֲהֵבֽוֹ
And Jonathan caused David to swear again, for the love that he had to him; for he loved him as he loved his own soul.
וַיֹּֽאמֶר־לוֹ יְהוֹנָתָן מָחָר חֹדֶשׁ וְנִפְקַדְתָּ כִּי יִפָּקֵד מוֹשָׁבֶֽךָ
And Jonathan said unto him: ‘To-morrow is the new moon; and thou wilt be missed, thy seat will be empty.
