1 Samuel 20:25
King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible
And the king sat upon his seat, as at other times, even upon a seat by the wall: and Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul’s side, and David’s place was empty.
He sat in his usual place by the wall, opposite Jonathan and beside Abner, but David’s place was empty.
