1 Samuel 20:15-17
New International Version
15 and do not ever cut off your kindness from my family(A)—not even when the Lord has cut off every one of David’s enemies from the face of the earth.”
16 So Jonathan(B) made a covenant(C) with the house of David, saying, “May the Lord call David’s enemies to account.(D)” 17 And Jonathan had David reaffirm his oath(E) out of love for him, because he loved him as he loved himself.
