1 Samuel 20:25-27
Christian Standard Bible
25 He sat at his usual place on the seat by the wall. Jonathan sat facing him[a] and Abner took his place beside Saul, but David’s place was empty.(A) 26 Saul did not say anything that day because he thought, “Something unexpected has happened; he must be ceremonially unclean—yes, that’s it, he is unclean.”(B)
27 However, the day after the New Moon, the second day, David’s place was still empty, and Saul asked his son Jonathan, “Why didn’t Jesse’s son come to the meal either yesterday or today?”
