1 Samuel 26:6-9
6And DavidH1732 spake and saidH559 to AhimelechH288 the HittiteH2850, and to AbishaiH52 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870, Joab's brotherH251, sayingH559, Who will goH3381 down with me to SaulH7586 to the campH4264? And AbishaiH52 saidH559, I will goH3381 down with thee.
7And DavidH1732 and AbishaiH52 cameH935 to the peopleH5971 by nightH3915, and behold, SaulH7586 layH7901 sleepingH3463 within the wagon-defence, and his spearH2595 stuck in the groundH776 at his headH4763; and AbnerH74 and the peopleH5971 layH7901 roundH5439 about him.
8And AbishaiH52 saidH559 to DavidH1732, 1GodH430 has deliveredH5462 thine enemyH341 into thy handH3027 this dayH3117; and nowH6258 let me smite him, I pray thee, with the spearH2595, even to the groundH776 once, and I will not do it the second time.
9And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbishaiH52, DestroyH7843 him not; for who can stretchH7971 forthH7971 his handH3027 against Jehovah's anointedH4899, and be guiltless?
