1. Samuelsbok 20,37

Jonathan

35 Nå skjedde det om morgenen at Jonatan gikk ut i marken for møtet med David, og en liten gutt var med ham.

36 Og han sa til gutten sin: "Løp, finn nå pilene som jeg skal skyte." Mens gutten løp, skjøt han en pil forbi ham.

Da gutten nådde stedet for pilen som Jonatan hadde skutt, ropte Jonatan etter gutten og sa: "Er ikke pilen bortenfor deg?"

38 Og Jonatan ropte etter gutten: "Skynd deg, vær rask, ikke bli stående!" Og Jonatans gutt plukket opp pilen og kom til sin herre.

39 Men gutten var uvitende om noe; bare Jonatan og David forsto saken.
