1 Samuel 20:20-22

New American Standard Bible

²⁰ And I will shoot three arrows to the side, as though I shot at a target. ²¹ Then behold, I will send the boy, telling him, ‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I specifically say to the boy, ‘Behold, the arrows are on this side of you, get them,’ then come, because it is safe for you and there is nothing to harm you, as the Lord lives. ²² But if I ^[a]say to the youth, ‘^(A)Behold, the arrows are beyond you,’ go, because the Lord has sent you away.
