32 But Jonathan answered his father Saul, “Why should he be put to death? What has he done?”
33 Then Saul hurled his spear at him to strike him down. So Jonathan knew that his father was determined to put David to death.
34 So Jonathan rose up from the table in fierce anger, and did not eat food the second day of the new month, for he was grieved over David, because his father had dishonored him.
35 It came to pass in the morning that Jonathan went out to the field at the time appointed with David, and a little lad was with him.
36 He said to his lad, “Run, find now the arrows that I am about to shoot.” Now as the lad was running, he shot an arrow past him.
37 When the lad reached the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried out after the lad and said, “Isn’t the arrow beyond you?”
38 Then Jonathan called out after the lad, “Quick, hurry! Don’t stand there!” So Jonathan’s lad picked up the arrow and came to his master.
