1 Samuel 26:17-19

17Then Saul recognized David’s voice and said, “1Is this your voice, my son David?” And David said, “It is my voice, my lord the king.”

18He also said, “2Why then is my lord pursuing his servant? For what have I done? Or what evil is in my hand?

19Now therefore, please let my lord the king listen to the words of his servant. If 3the Lord has stirred you up against me, 4let Him 5accept an offering; but 6if it is 7men, cursed are they before the Lord, for 8they have driven me out today so that I would have no attachment with the inheritance of the Lord, saying, ‘Go, serve other gods.’
