Passage: 1 Samuel 20:30-33 (RSV)


1 Samuel 20


30Then Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said to him, "You son of a perverse, rebellious woman, do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame, and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?
31For as long as the son of Jesse lives upon the earth, neither you nor your kingdom shall be established. Therefore send and fetch him to me, for he shall surely die."
32Then Jonathan answered Saul his father, "Why should he be put to death? What has he done?"
33But Saul cast his spear at him to smite him; so Jonathan knew that his father was determined to put David to death.
