King James VersionSource notes
“And Jonathan caused David to swear again, because he loved him: for he loved him as he loved his own soul.”
Context
14And thou shalt not only while yet I live shew me the kindness of the LORD, that I die not:
15But thou shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house for ever: no, not when the LORD hath cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth.
16So Jonathan made with the house of David, Let the LORD even require at the hand of David’s enemies.
17And Jonathan caused David to swear again, because he loved him: for he loved him as he loved his own soul.
18Then Jonathan said to David, To morrow the new moon: and thou shalt be missed, because thy seat will be empty.
19And thou hast stayed three days, thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself when the business was and shalt remain by the stone Ezel.
20And I will shoot three arrows on the side as though I shot at a mark.
