1 Samuel 20:4-6

21st Century King James Version

⁴ Then said Jonathan unto David, “Whatsoever thy soul desireth, I will even do it for thee.”

⁵ And David said unto Jonathan, “Behold, tomorrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat; but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third day at evening.

⁶ If thy father at all miss me, then say, ‘David earnestly asked leave of me, that he might run to Bethlehem, his city; for there is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.’
