1 Samuel 26:8-10
8Then Abishai said to David, “Today God has handed your enemy over to you; now then, please let me 1pin him with the spear to the ground with one thrust, and I will not 2do it to him a second time.”
9But David said to Abishai, “Do not 3kill him, for 4who can reach out with his hand against the Lord’s anointed and remain innocent?”
10David also said, “As the Lord lives, 5the Lord certainly will strike him, or 6his day will come that he dies, or 7he will go down in battle and 8perish.
