1 Samuel 26:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ So that night David and Abishai went ·into Saul’s camp [^Lamidst the army]. Saul was asleep ·in [within] the ·middle [circle; ring] of the camp with his spear stuck in the ground near his head. Abner and the army were sleeping around Saul. ⁸ Abishai said to David, “Today God has ·handed [delivered] your enemy ·over to you [^Linto your hand]. Let me pin Saul to the ground with my spear. I’ll only have to do it once. I won’t need to ·hit [^Lstrike] him twice.”

⁹ But David said to Abishai, “Don’t ·kill [^Ldestroy] Saul! ·No one [Who…?] can ·harm [raise a hand against] the Lord’s ·appointed king [anointed] and still be ·innocent [without guilt]!
