34. Jonathan got up from the table very angry and ate nothing that second day of the month. He was worried sick about David because Jonathan had been humiliated by his own father.
35. In the morning Jonathan went out to the country to the place he and David had agreed on. Jonathan had a young boy with him.
36. “Run,” he told the boy, “please find the arrows I shoot.”The boy ran, and Jonathan shot the arrow over him.
37. When the boy reached the place where Jonathan’s arrow ⌊had landed⌋, Jonathan called after him, “The arrows are next to you!”
38. Jonathan added, “Quick! Hurry up! Don’t stand there!” Jonathan’s young servant gathered the arrows and came to his master.
39. The boy had no idea what was going on, but Jonathan and David understood.
40. Then Jonathan gave his weapons to the boy. He told the boy, “Take them back into town.”
41. When the boy had left, David came out from the south side ⌊of the rock⌋ and quickly bowed down three times with his face touching the ground. Then they kissed each other and cried together, but David cried the loudest.
