1 Samuel 24:16-22

16And it came to pass, when David had made an end of speaking these words unto Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept. 17And he saidH559 to DavidH1732, Thou art more righteous than I; for thou hast rendered unto me good, whereas I have rendered unto thee evil. 18And thou hast declared this day how that thou hast dealtH1580 well with me, forasmuch as when Jehovah had delivered me up into thy hand, thou killedst me not. 19For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well away? wherefore Jehovah reward thee goodH2896 for that which thou hast done unto me this dayH3117. 20And now, behold, I know that thou shalt surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thy hand. 21Swear nowH6258 thereforeH6258 unto me by Jehovah, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father’s house. 22And David sware unto Saul. And Saul went home; but David and his men gat them up unto the stronghold.
