1 Samuel 20:15-17

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ And never stop being kind to my family. Don’t stop even when the Lord has cut off every one of your enemies from the face of the earth.”

¹⁶ So Jonathan made a covenant of friendship with David and his family. He said, “May the Lord hold David’s enemies responsible for what they’ve done.” ¹⁷ Jonathan had David promise his friendship again because he loved him. In fact, Jonathan loved David just as he loved himself.
