8AfterwardH310H3651, however, DavidH1732 gotH6965 upH6965 and wentH3318 outH3318 of the caveH4631, and calledH7121 afterH310 SaulH7586, sayingH559, “My lordH113 the kingH4428!” And when SaulH7586 lookedH5027 behindH310 him, 1DavidH1732 bowedH6915 with his faceH639 to the groundH776 and prostratedH2331 himself.
9And DavidH1732 saidH559 to SaulH7586, “WhyH4100 do you listenH8085 to the wordsH1697 of menH120 2who sayH559, ‘BeholdH2009, DavidH1732 is seekingH1245 3to harmH7463 you’?
104BeholdH2009, thisH2088 dayH3117 your eyesH5869 have seenH7200 that the LordH3068 had handedH5414H3027 you overH5414 to me todayH3117 in the caveH4631, and 5someone saidH559 to killH2026 you, but 6I sparedH2347 you; and I saidH559, ‘I will not reachH7971 outH7971 with my handH3027 against my lordH113, becauseH3588 he is the Lord’sH3068 anointedH4899.’
