O David, thou who art to me as a brother,
I, Jonathan, prince of Israel, ask thy friendship.
Take thou my robe in token of my love.
David:
O Jonathan, I am but a shepherd of the sheep,
But I return thy love. (They exchange shepherd skin and velvet.)
(Enter Michal and her dancing women, with cymbals. They chant as they dance.)
