1 Samuel 24:2-4
English Standard Version
2 Then Saul took (A)three thousand chosen men out of all Israel and went to seek David and his men in front of the Wildgoats' Rocks. 3 And he came to the sheepfolds by the way, where there was a cave, and Saul went in (B)to relieve himself.[a] Now David and his men were sitting in the innermost parts (C)of the cave. 4 And the men of David said to him, (D)“Here is the day of which the Lord said to you, ‘Behold, I will give your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it shall seem good to you.’” Then David arose and stealthily cut off a corner of Saul's robe.
