34. Jonathan got up from the table in a rage. He didn’t eat anything on the second day of the new moon because he was worried about David and because his father had humiliated him.
35. In the morning, Jonathan went out to the field for the meeting with David, and a young servant boy went with him.
36. He said to the boy, "Go quickly and retrieve the arrow that I shoot." So the boy ran off, and he shot an arrow beyond him.
37. When the boy got to the spot where Jonathan shot the arrow, Jonathan yelled to him, "Isn’t the arrow past you?"
38. Jonathan yelled again to the boy, "Quick! Hurry up! Don’t just stand there!" So Jonathan’s servant boy gathered up the arrow and came back to his master.
39. The boy had no idea what had happened; only Jonathan and David knew.
40. Jonathan handed his weapons to the boy and told him, "Get going. Take these back to town."
41. As soon as the boy was gone, David came out from behind the mound and fell down, face on the ground, bowing low three times. The friends kissed each other, and cried with each other, but David cried hardest.
