"Then David said to Jonathan, "Who shall tell me if perchance your father answers you roughly?""
— 1 Samuel 20:10, World English Bible
“Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? or what if thy father answer thee roughly?”
“Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me if perchance thy father answer thee roughly? ”
“David said to Jonathan,“Who will tell me if your father answers you harshly?””
“And David answered Jonathan: Who shall bring me word, if thy father should answer thee harshly concerning me?”
“Then David said to Jonathan, Who will give me word if your father gives you a rough answer?”
“Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? or what if thy father answer thee roughly?”
If he says, 'It is well;' your servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, then know that evil is determined by him.
Therefore deal kindly with your servant; for you have brought your servant into a covenant of Yahweh with you: but if there be in me iniquity, kill me yourself; for why should you bring me to your father?"
Jonathan said, "Far be it from you; for if I should at all know that evil were determined by my father to come on you, then wouldn't I tell you that?"
Then David said to Jonathan, "Who shall tell me if perchance your father answers you roughly?"
Jonathan said to David, "Come, and let us go out into the field." They both went out into the field.
Jonathan said to David, "Yahweh, the God of Israel, [be witness]: when I have sounded my father about this time tomorrow, [or] the third day, behold, if there be good toward David, shall I not then send to you, and disclose it to you?
Yahweh do so to Jonathan, and more also, should it please my father to do you evil, if I don't disclose it to you, and send you away, that you may go in peace: and Yahweh be with you, as he has been with my father.
