1 Samuel 24:4-6

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁴ Then the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which the LORD said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thy enemy into thy hand that thou may do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then David arose and silently cut off the skirt of Saul’s robe.

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

⁶ And he said unto his men, The LORD keep me from doing this thing unto my master, the LORD’s anointed, to stretch forth my hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD.
