1 SAMUEL 20:15 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“But also 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.”
May the LORD be with you as he has been with my father — Jonathan invokes divine presence as the mediating force between generations, asking that the LORD who was with Saul (*k'asher haya im avi*) might be with David going forward. The transfer of divine favor is implicit: as Saul's kingship wanes, David's future brightens.
