Go in peace:
"But if¹ I sayª ° thus¹ unto the young man,ª Behold,¹ the arrowsª [are] beyondª ¹ thee; go thy way:² °¹ for¹ the LORDª hath sent thee away.ª °" {1Sm 20:22} + "Then Eliª answeredª ° and said,ª ° Go² °¹ in peace:ª and the Godª of Israelª grantª ° [thee]¹ thy petitionª that¹ thou hast askedª ° of¹ ¹ him." {1Sm 1:17} + "The LORDª lift upª ° his countenanceª upon¹ thee, and giveª ° thee peace.ª" {Num 6:26} + "Andª he saidª ° toª the¹ woman,ª Thyª faithª hath savedª ° thee;ª goª ° inª peace.ª" {Lke 7:50} + "Andª the¹ keeper of the prisonª toldª ° thisª sayingª toª Paul,ª ² The¹ magistratesª have sentª ° toª let you go:ª ° nowª thereforeª depart,² °¹ and go² °¹ inª peace.ª" {Act 16:36}

forasmuch as:
or, the Lord be witness of that which, etc. "And [as touching] the matterª which¹ thou¹ and I¹ have spokenª ° of, behold,¹ the LORDª [be] between¹ thee and me for² ever.ª ¹" {1Sm 20:23}

And he arose:
"And they twoª madeª ° a covenantª beforeª the LORD:ª and Davidª abodeª ° in the wood,ª and Jonathanª wentª ° to his house.ª" {1Sm 23:18}; The separation of two such faithful friends was equally grievous to them both, but David's case was the more deplorable. For when Jonathan was returning to his family and friends, David was leaving all his comforts, even those of God's sanctuary, and therefore his grief exceeded Jonathan's; or, perhaps it was because his temper was more tender and his passions stronger. They referred each other to the covenant of friendship that was between them, both of them being comforted thereby in this very mournful separation - "We have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, for ourselves and our heirs, that we and they will be faithful and kind to each other from generation to generation."
