РСП (66 кн.)
И сказал ему Ионафан: нет, ты не умрешь; вот, отец мой не делает ни большого, ни малого дела, не открыв ушам моим; для чего же бы отцу моему скрывать от меня это дело? Этого не будет.
НРП
— Да не будет этого! — ответил Ионафан. — Ты не умрешь! Мой отец не делает ничего, ни важного, ни пустякового дела, не рассказав мне. Зачем бы он скрывал это от меня? Ты ошибаешься!

Ионафан ответил: «Нет, ты ни за что не умрешь! Что бы ни делал мой отец, большое или малое, он всегда сообщает мне. Разве он станет скрывать от меня задуманное? Не может быть!»
СП (БЛ)
Ионафан ответил: «Это неправда, мой отец не желает твоей смерти! Мой отец не делает ни большого, ни малого дела, не сказав сначала мне. Так почему бы он стал скрывать от меня, что хочет убить тебя? Нет, это неправда!»
