1 Samuel 24:4-7 So David’s men said unto him––Lo! the day of which Yahweh said unto thee––Lo! I am about to deliver up thine enemy, into thy hand: therefore shall thou do unto him, as shall be good in thine eyes. And David arose, and cut off the corner of the robe which belonged to Saul, by stealth.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ So David’s men said unto him––Lo! the day of which Yahweh said unto thee––Lo! I am about to deliver up thine enemy, into thy hand: therefore shall thou do unto him, as shall be good in thine eyes. And David arose, and cut off the corner of the robe which belonged to Saul, by stealth. ⁵ And it came to pass afterwards that David’s heart smote him,––because he had cut off the corner [of the robe] which belonged to Saul. ⁶ And he said unto his men––Far be it from me, of Yahweh, that I should do this thing unto my lord, unto the Anointed of Yahweh, to thrust forth my hand against him,––for, the Anointed of Yahweh, is he! ⁷ So David did chide his men with the words, and did not suffer them to rise up against Saul. And, Saul, rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.
