35. In the morning Jonathan went out to the field at the time appointed with David, and a little boy was with him.
36. And he said to his boy, “Run, find the arrows which I shoot.” He ran, and he shot the arrow over him.
37. When the boy came to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan called after the boy and said, “Is not the arrow beyond you?”
38. Then Jonathan cried after the boy, “Hurry quickly! Do not stay!” And Jonathan’s boy gathered up the arrow and came to his master.
39. But the boy did not know anything. Only Jonathan and David knew the matter.
40. Jonathan gave his weapons to his boy and said to him, “Go, carry them to the city.”
41. When the boy had gone, David arose from the south side of the stone, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times. They kissed one another and wept together, but David wept more.
42. Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, since the two of us swore in the name of the Lord, saying, ‘The Lord will be between me and you, and between my descendants and your descendants forever.’ ” So he arose and departed, but Jonathan went into the city.
