1 Samuel 24:4-7

4Then David’s men said to him, “Behold, 1this is the day of which the Lord said to you, ‘Behold; 2I am about to hand your enemy over to you, and you shall do to him as it seems good 3to you.’” Then David got up and cut off the edge of Saul’s robe secretly. 5But it came about afterward that 4David’s 5conscience bothered him because he had cut off the edge of Saul’s robe. 6So he said to his men, “6Far be it from me because of the Lord that I would do this thing to my lord, the Lord’s anointed, to reach out with my hand against him, since he is the Lord’s anointed.” 7And David rebuked his men with these words and did not allow them to rise up against Saul. And Saul got up, 7left the cave, and went on his way.
