1 Samuel 24:1-4
11Now 2when Saul returned from pursuing the Philistines, 3it was reported to him, saying, “Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi.”
2Then 4Saul took three thousand chosen men from all Israel and went to search for David and his men in front of the Rocks of the Mountain Goats.
3And he came to the sheepfolds on the way, where there was a cave; and Saul 5went in to 6relieve himself. Now 7David and his men were sitting in the inner recesses of the cave.
4Then David’s men said to him, “Behold, 8this is the day of which the Lord said to you, ‘Behold; 9I am about to hand your enemy over to you, and you shall do to him as it seems good 10to you.’” Then David got up and cut off the edge of Saul’s robe secretly.
