1 Samuel 26:14-16

14and DavidH1732 cried to the peopleH5971, and to AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369, sayingH559, Answerest thou not, AbnerH74? Then AbnerH74 answered and saidH559, Who art thou that criest to the kingH4428? 15And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbnerH74, Art not thou a valiant manH376? and who is likeH3644 to thee in IsraelH3478? wherefore then hast thou not keptH8104 watchH8104 over thy lordH113 the kingH4428? for there cameH935 oneH259 of the peopleH5971 in to destroyH7843 the kingH4428 thy lordH113. 16This thingH1697 is not goodH2896 that thou hast done. As Jehovah liveth, ye are worthy to die, because ye have not keptH8104 watchH8104 over your lord, Jehovah’s anointedH4899. And nowH6258 seeH7200 whereH834 the king’sH4428 spearH2595 is, and the cruse of waterH4325 that was at his headH4763.
