15 And David saw that Saul was come out to seek his life. And David was in the desert of Ziph, in a wood. 16 And Jonathan the son of Saul arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hands in God: and he said to him: 17 Fear not: for the hand of my father Saul shall not find thee, and thou shalt reign over Israel, and I shall be next to thee, yea, and my father knoweth this. 18 And the two made a covenant before the Lord: and David abode in the wood: but Jonathan returned to his house. 1 Samuel 23:15-18, Douay-Rheims Bible.
