1 Samuel 26:8-11
8Then AbishaiH52 saidH559 to DavidH1732, “TodayH3117 GodH430 has deliveredH5462 your enemyH340 into your handH3027; nowH6258 therefore, pleaseH4994 let me strikeH5221 him with the spearH2595 1to the groundH776 with oneH259 strokeH6471, and I will not 2strike him the secondH8138 timeH8138.”
9But DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbishaiH52, “Do not destroyH7843 him, for 3whoH4310 can stretchH7971 out his handH3027 against the Lord’sH3068 anointedH4899 and be withoutH5352 guiltH5352?”
10DavidH1732 also saidH559, “As the LordH3068 livesH2416, 4surelyH3588H518 the LordH3068 will strikeH5062 him, orH176 5his dayH3117 will comeH935 that he diesH4191, orH176 6he will goH3381 downH3381 into battleH4421 and perishH5595.
117The LordH3068 forbidH2486 that I should stretchH7971 out my handH3027 against the Lord’sH3068 anointedH4899; but nowH6258 pleaseH4994 takeH3947 the spearH2595 that is at his headH4763 and the jugH6835 of waterH4325, and let us goH1980.”
