1 Samuel 24:12-15

JPS_ASV_Byz(i) 12 (24:13) The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee; but my hand shall not be upon thee. 13 (24:14) As saith the proverb of the ancients: Out of the wicked cometh forth wickedness; but my hand shall not be upon thee. 14 (24:15) After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea. 15 (24:16) The LORD therefore be judge, and give sentence between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thy hand.'
