1 Samuel 23:16
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
And Saul’s son Jonathan came to David in Horesh and strengthened his hand in God,
In context
14 And David stayed in the wilderness strongholds and in the hill country of the Wilderness of Ziph. Day after day Saul searched for him, but God would not deliver David into his hand.
15 While David was in Horesh in the Wilderness of Ziph, he saw that Saul had come out to take his life.
16 And Saul’s son Jonathan came to David in Horesh and strengthened his hand in God,
17 saying, “Do not be afraid, for my father Saul will never lay a hand on you. And you will be king over Israel, and I will be your second-in-command. Even my father Saul knows this is true.”
18 So the two of them made a covenant before the LORD. And David remained in Horesh, while Jonathan went home.
