1 Samuel 24:9-15

MKJV(i) 9 And David said to Saul, Why do you hear man's words, saying, Behold, David seeks to do you evil? 10 Behold, your eyes have seen today how Jehovah had delivered you today into my hand in the cave. And one said to kill you. But I had pity on you. And I said, I will not put forth my hand against my lord, for he is Jehovah's anointed. 11 And, my father, behold! Yes, see the skirt of your robe in my hand. For in that I cut off the skirt of your robe and did not kill you, know 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 May Jehovah judge between me and you, and may Jehovah avenge me of you. But my hand shall not be on you. 13 As the ancient proverb says, Wickedness proceeds from the wicked. But my hand shall not be on you. 14 After whom has the king of Israel come out? After whom do you pursue? After a dead dog? After a flea? 15 May Jehovah therefore be judge, and judge between you and me, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of your hand.
