1 Samuel 20:2

20:2 Jonathan ¹  said to him, “By no means are you going to die! My father does nothing ²  large or small without making me aware of it. ³  Why would my father hide this matter from me? It just won’t happen!”

¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Jonathan) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tc The translation follows the Qere, many medieval Hebrew mss, and the ancient versions in reading “he will not do,” rather than the Kethib of the MT (“do to him”).

³ tn Heb “without uncovering my ear.”
