Jonathan’s arrow in the field, and David and Jonathan weeping with one another

요나단이 들에서 쏜 살과 피차 입맞추고 같이 운 다윗과 요나단

1 Samuel 20:35–42: in the morning, Jonathan goes out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little boy with him. He says to his boy, “Run, find now the arrows which I shoot.” As the boy runs, he shoots an arrow beyond him. When the boy has come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cries after the boy, and says, “Isn’t the arrow beyond you?” Jonathan cries after the boy, “Go fast! Hurry! Don’t delay!” Jonathan’s boy gathers up the arrows, and comes to his master. But the boy doesn’t know anything. Only Jonathan and David know the matter. Jonathan gives his weapons to his boy, and says to him, “Go, carry them to the city.” As soon as the boy is gone, David arises out of the south, and falls on his face to the ground, and bows himself three times. They kiss one another and weep with one another, and David weeps the most. Jonathan says to David, “Go in peace, because we have both sworn in the LORD’s name, saying, ‘The LORD is between me and you, and between my offspring and your offspring, forever.’” He arises and departs; and Jonathan goes into the city. The Korean Revised Version says at 20:41 that David rose from the south side of the rock (바위 남편에서).
