1 Samuel 24:1-6

1And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of En–gedi.1

2Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.

3And he came to the sheepcotes by the way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men remained in the sides of the cave.

4And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which Yhwh said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thine hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul’s robe privily.2

5And it came to pass afterward, that David’s heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul’s skirt.

6And he said unto his men, Yhwh forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, Yhwh's anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of Yhwh.
