| Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul. And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle. (1 Sam. 18:3‑4) |
| Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may show the kindness of God unto him? And Ziba said unto the king, Jonathan hath yet a son, which is lame on his feet. (2 Sam. 9:3) |
| Mephibosheth thy master’s son shall eat bread alway at my table. (2 Sam. 9:10) |
Through the yesterday of ages,
Jesus, Thou art still the same;
Through our own life’s checkered pages,
Still the one, dear, changeless name!
Well may we in Thee confide,
Faithful Savior, proved and tried. |
