9But DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbishaiH52, “Do not 1killH7843 him, for 2whoH4310 can reachH7971 outH7971 with his handH3027 against the Lord’sH3068 anointedH4899 and remainH5352 innocentH5352?”

10DavidH1732 also saidH559, “As the LordH3068 livesH2416, 3the LordH3068 certainlyH3588H518 will strikeH5062 him, orH176 4his dayH3117 will comeH935 that he diesH4191, orH176 5he will goH3381 downH3381 in battleH4421 and 6perishH5595.

117The LordH3068 forbidH2486 that I would reachH7971 outH7971 with my handH3027 against the Lord’sH3068 anointedH4899! But nowH6258 pleaseH4994 takeH3947 the spearH2595 that is atH4763 his headH4763 and the jugH6835 of waterH4325, and let’s goH1980.”
