1 SAMUEL 20:25 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the king sat upon his seat, as at other times, even upon a seat by the wall: and Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul’s side, and David’s place was empty.”
And as for the matter that you and I have spoken, the LORD is between you and me forever — Jonathan's *v'et hadavar asher dibarta atah v'ani*, as for the matter that you and I have spoken, refers to their covenant, invoking it as the lasting bond that will endure all separation. The *YHWH yihiye beinenu adolam*, the LORD is between us forever, places God at the heart of the covenant, the eternal witness and guarantor.
