1 Samuel 20:31-33

The Message

^30-31 Saul exploded in anger at Jonathan: “You son of a slut! Don’t you think I know that you’re in cahoots with the son of Jesse, disgracing both you and your mother? For as long as the son of Jesse is walking around free on this earth, your future in this kingdom is at risk. Now go get him. Bring him here. From this moment, he’s as good as dead!”

³² Jonathan stood up to his father. “Why dead? What’s he done?”

³³ Saul threw his spear at him to kill him. That convinced Jonathan that his father was fixated on killing David.
