約拿單說：『你絕對不至於如此。我若準知道我父親決定要加害於你，我還有不告訴你的麼？』

约拿单说：“断无此事！我若知道我父亲决意害你，我岂不告诉你呢？”

约拿单说：“绝无此事！我若确实知道我父亲决意害你，怎么会不告诉你呢？”

约拿单说：“绝无此事！我若确实知道我父亲决意害你，怎么会不告诉你呢？”

约拿单答道：“我决不会这样做。如果我知道我父亲决意要杀你，我怎能不通知你呢？”

约拿单说：“绝对没有这事，如果我知道我父亲决意要害你，我会不告诉你吗？”

约拿单说：“你绝不会有事的！况且如果我确实知道我父亲已经决意要加害你，我会不告诉你吗？”

約拿單說：「斷無此事！我若知道我父親決意害你，我豈不告訴你呢？」

Jonathan said,“ Far be it from you; for if I should at all know that evil were determined by my father to come on you, then wouldn’t I tell you that?”
