*
Then Saul '
s anger was kindled against Jonathan ,
and he said to him , "
You son of a perverse ,
rebellious woman ,
do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame ,
and to the shame of your mother '
s nakedness ?
*
For as long as the son of Jesse lives upon the earth ,
neither you nor your kingdom shall be established .
Therefore send and fetch him to me ,
for he shall surely die ."
*
Then Jonathan answered Saul his father , "
Why should he be put to death ?
What has he done ?"
*
But Saul cast his spear at him to smite him ;
so Jonathan knew that his father was determined to put David to death .
*
And Jonathan rose from the table in fierce anger and ate no food the second day of the month ,
for he was grieved for David ,
because his father had disgraced him .
