1 Samuel 24:9-15

KJ2000(i) 9 And David said to Saul, Why hear you men's words, saying, Behold, David seeks your hurt? 10 Behold, this day your eyes have seen how that the LORD had delivered you today into my hand in the cave: and some bade me kill you: but my eye spared you; and I said, I will not put forth my hand against my lord; for he is the LORD'S anointed. 11 Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of your robe in my hand: for in that I cut off the skirt of your robe, and killed you not, know you and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in my hand, and I have not sinned against you; yet you hunt my soul to take it. 12 The LORD judge between me and you, and the LORD avenge me of you: but my hand shall not be upon you. 13 As says the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceeds from the wicked: but my hand shall not be upon you. 14 After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom do you pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea. 15 The LORD therefore be judge, and judge between me and you, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of your hand.
