1 Samuel 24:11-18

11And seeH7200, my father, yes, seeH7200 the skirt of thy robe in my handH3027. For in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killedH2026 thee not, know and seeH7200 that there is neither evil nor transgression in my handH3027, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou liest in wait for my life to take it.

12Jehovah judge between me and thee, and Jehovah avenge me of thee; but my handH3027 shall not be upon thee.

13As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked; but my handH3027 shall not beH1961 upon thee.

14After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a single flea.

15Jehovah therefore shall be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and do me justice [in delivering me] out of thy hand.

16And as soon as David had ended speaking these words to Saul, 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 rewarded me good, whereas I have rewarded thee evil.

18And thou hast shewed this day how that thou hast dealtH1580 well with me, forasmuch as when Jehovah had delivered me up into thy hand, thou didst not kill me.
