27 And it came to pass on the morrow, the second day of the new moon, David's place was still empty; and Saul said to Jonathan his son, Why has not the son of Jesse come to eat, either yesterday or today? 28 And Jonathan answered and said to Saul his father, David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Beth-lehem; 29 And he said, Let me go, for our family has a sacrifice in the city; and my brother has commanded me to be there; and now, if I have found favor in your eyes, let me get away and see my brothers. That is the reason he has not come to the king's table. 1 Samuel 20:27-29, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
