1 Samuel 20:16 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 20:16

So Jonathan made [a covenant] with the house of David
Not with David himself only, which was now renewed, but with his family also:

[saying], let the Lord even require [it] at the hand of David's
enemies;
take vengeance on Jonathan, or on any of his posterity, should they break this covenant, by showing themselves enemies to David, and his crown; and, on the other hand, also on David, and his posterity, should they not show kindness to Jonathan and his seed, according to the tenor of this covenant.

1 Samuel 20:16 In-Context

14 Y que tú me trates con el fiel amor del Señor
mientras que yo viva. Pero si muero,
15 trata a mi familia con este fiel amor, aun cuando el Señor
elimine a todos tus enemigos de la faz de la tierra.
16 Entonces Jonatán hizo un pacto solemne con David
diciendo:
—¡Que el Señor
destruya a todos tus enemigos!
17 Y Jonatán hizo que David reafirmara su voto de amistad, porque amaba a David tanto como a sí mismo.
18 Después Jonatán dijo:
—Mañana celebramos el festival de luna nueva. Te extrañarán cuando vean que tu lugar a la mesa está desocupado.
