1 Samuel 26:9-11

The Voice

David: ⁹ No. Don’t kill him. Who can legitimately strike the Eternal’s anointed king without consequences? ¹⁰ As the Eternal One lives, his time will come. The Eternal will strike him down; either he will die, or he will go into battle one day and be slain. ¹¹ God forbid that I would be the one to harm the Eternal’s anointed king. But please, take his spear next to his head and that water jug, and let’s go.
