1 Samuel 25:29-31

Evangelical Heritage Version

²⁹ Though men may rise up to pursue you and to seek your life, may the life of my lord be safely wrapped up in the bundle of the living, with the Lord your God. But the lives of your enemies he will hurl away like a stone from the pocket of a sling. ³⁰ Then, when the Lord has done for my lord all the good things that he has spoken concerning you, and he has appointed you leader over Israel, ³¹ you will not be burdened by grief or a guilty conscience because you, my lord, have shed blood without cause or have avenged yourself. Then, when the Lord has dealt well with you, my lord, remember your servant.”
