16 Then Jonathan son of Saul left and went to David at Horesh. He encouraged him through God.

17 He said to him, |Don't be afraid! For the hand of my father Saul cannot find you. You will rule over Israel, and I will be your second in command. Even my father Saul realizes this.|

18 When the two of them had made a covenant before the LORD, David stayed on at Horesh, but Jonathan went to his house.
