Bible verse
“Come,” he replied, “let us go out to the field.” So the two of them went out into the field,
1 Samuel 20:11 · BSB
The verses around it, from 1 Samuel 20.
7 If he says, ‘Good,’ then your servant is safe, but if he is enraged, you will know he has evil intentions.
8 Therefore deal faithfully with your servant, for you have brought me into a covenant with you before the LORD. If there is iniquity in me, then kill me yourself; why should you bring me to your father?”
9 “Never!” Jonathan replied. “If I ever found out that my father had evil intentions against you, would I not tell you?”
10 Then David asked Jonathan, “Who will tell me if your father answers you harshly?”
11 “Come,” he replied, “let us go out to the field.” So the two of them went out into the field,
12 and Jonathan said, “By the LORD, the God of Israel, I will sound out my father by this time tomorrow or the next day. If he is favorable toward you, will I not send for you and tell you?
13 But if my father intends to bring evil on you, then may the LORD punish me, and ever so severely, if I do not tell you and send you on your way in safety. May the LORD be with you, just as He has been with my father.
14 And as long as I live, treat me with the LORD’s loving devotion, that I may not die,
15 and do not ever cut off your loving devotion from my household—not even when the LORD cuts off every one of David’s enemies from the face of the earth.”
