New American Standard Bible 1995
1 Samuel 26:21-25
21Then Saul said, “1I have sinned. Return, my son David, for I will not harm you again because my life was precious in your sight this day. Behold, I have played the fool and have committed a serious error.”
22David replied, “Behold the spear of the king! Now let one of the young men come over and take it.
232The Lord will repay each man for his righteousness and his faithfulness; for the Lord delivered you into my hand today, but 3I refused to stretch out my hand against the Lord’s anointed.
24Now behold, as your life was 4highly valued in my sight this day, so may my life be highly valued in the sight of the Lord, and may He 5deliver me from all distress.”
25Then Saul said to David, “6Blessed are you, my son David; you will both accomplish much and surely prevail.” So 7David went on his way, and Saul returned to his place.
