Listen to 1 Samuele 20:12
12 E Gionathan disse a Davide: "L’Eterno, l’Iddio d’Israele, mi sia testimonio! Quando domani o posdomani, a quest’ora, io avrò scandagliato mio padre, s’egli è ben disposto verso Davide, ed io non mando a fartelo sapere, l’Eterno tratti Gionathan con tutto il suo rigore!

1 Samuele 20:12 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 20:12

And Jonathan said unto David, O Lord God of Israel
Or by the Lord God of Israel, I swear unto thee; for this is the form of the oath, as Jarchi and Kimchi observe:

when I have sounded my father about tomorrow any time, [or] the third
[day];
searched, inquired, and found out how his disposition is:

and, behold, [if there be] good toward David;
if he is well disposed to him, as may appear by speaking respectfully of him, or kindly inquiring after him, and by being satisfied with the account given him:

and I then send not unto thee, and show it thee;
then let the vengeance of God fall upon me in some remarkable manner or another, as follows; or "shall I not then send unto thee, and show it thee" F20? certainly I will; that is, I will send a messenger to thee to acquaint thee with it, who shall tell it, and cause thee to hear it, as from myself.

13 Nel caso poi che piaccia a mio padre di farti del male, te lo farò sapere, e ti lascerò partire perché tu te ne vada in pace; e l’Eterno sia teco, com’è stato con mio padre!
14 E se sarò ancora in vita, non è egli vero? tu agirai verso di me con la bontà dell’Eterno, ond’io non sia messo a morte;
