1 Samuel 19:7

And Jonathan called David
Out of his lurking place in the field, after Saul was returned home:

and Jonathan showed him all these things:
which had passed between him and his father, and particularly the oath he had made that he should not be slain:

and Jonathan brought David to Saul:
introduced him at court again, and into the presence chamber of Saul; who, in appearance, received him courteously, and a reconciliation was seemingly made:

and he was in his presence as in times past;
when he was first received at court, and in great esteem both with Saul and his courtiers.
