""When you have stayed for three days, you shall go down quickly and come to the place where you hid yourself on that eventful day, and you shall remain by the stone Ezel."
— 1 Samuel 20:19, NASB
“And when thou hast stayed three days, then thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself when the business was in hand, and shalt remain by the stone Ezel.”
“And when thou hast stayed three days, thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself when the business was in hand, and shalt remain by the stone Ezel. ”
“On the third day you should go down quickly and come to the place where you hid yourself the day this all started. Stay near the stone Ezel.”
“And on the third day it will be specially noted, and you will go to the place where you took cover when the other business was in hand, waiting by the hill over there.”
So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, "May the LORD require it at the hands of David's enemies."
Jonathan made David vow again because of his love for him, because he loved him as he loved his own life.
Then Jonathan said to him, "Tomorrow is the new moon, and you will be missed because your seat will be empty.
"When you have stayed for three days, you shall go down quickly and come to the place where you hid yourself on that eventful day, and you shall remain by the stone Ezel.
"I will shoot three arrows to the side, as though I shot at a target.
"And behold, I will send the lad, saying, 'Go, find the arrows.' If I specifically say to the lad, 'Behold, the arrows are on this side of you, get them,' then come; for there is safety for you and no harm, as the LORD lives.
"But if I say to the youth, 'Behold, the arrows are beyond you,' go, for the LORD has sent you away.
