Jubilee Bible 2000

10 Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? Or what if thy father answers thee roughly?

New International Version
8 As for you, show kindness to your servant, for you have brought him into a covenant(A) with you before the Lord. If I am guilty, then kill(B) me yourself! Why hand me over to your father?”
9 “Never!” Jonathan said. “If I had the least inkling that my father was determined to harm you, wouldn’t I tell you?”
10 David asked, “Who will tell me if your father answers you harshly?”
