1 Samuel 24:16-19

16When David had finished speaking, Saul called back, “Is that really you, my son David?” Then he began to cry.

17And he said to David, “You are a better man than I am, for you have repaid me good for evil.

18Yes, you have been amazingly kind to me today, for when the Lord put me in a place where you could have killed me, you didn’t do it.

19Who else would let his enemy get away when he had him in his power? May the Lord reward you well for the kindness you have shown me today.
