Shmuel Alef 20:7-9

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁷ If he say thus, It is tov; thy eved shall have shalom; but if he be very wrathful, then be sure that ra’ah is determined by him.

⁸ Therefore thou shalt deal with chesed unto thy eved; for thou hast brought thy eved into Brit Hashem with thee; notwithstanding, if there be in me avon (iniquity), slay me thyself; for why shouldest thou bring me to avicha?

⁹ And Yonatan said, Chalilah (far be it) from thee; for if I had da’as certainly that ra’ah were determined by Avi to come upon thee, then would not I tell it thee?
