8 Ngicela ube lothando oluqotho encekwini yakho+ ngoba wenze isivumelwano layo phambi kukaJehova.+ Kodwa nxa ngilecala+ kungcono ungibulale wena kulokuthi ungiyekele ngibulawa nguyihlo.”

42 UJonathani wathi kuDavida: “Uhambe kuhle njengoba sifunge+ ngebizo likaJehova sathi, ‘UJehova kabe phakathi kwami lawe, laphakathi kwabantwabami labantwabakho kuze kube nini lanini.’”+

UDavida wasukuma wahamba, uJonathani wasebuyela edolobheni.

18 Ngemva kwalokho bobabili benza isivumelwano+ phambi kukaJehova, uJonathani wasesuka wabuyela emzini wakhe, uDavida wasala eHoreshi.

9 UDavida wathi: “Kulomuntu oseleyo yini kwabendlu kaSawuli engingamenzela umusa* ngenxa kaJonathani?”+

7 Kodwa inkosi yamzwela uMefibhoshethi+ indodana kaJonathani indodana kaSawuli, ngoba yayenze isifungo loJonathani+ indodana kaSawuli phambi kukaJehova.
