1 Samuel 24:13-15
Legacy Standard Bible
13 As the proverb of the ancients says, ‘(A)Out of the wicked comes forth wickedness’; but my hand shall not be against you. 14 After whom has the king of Israel come out? Whom are you pursuing? (B)After a dead dog, after (C)a single flea? 15 (D)Therefore Yahweh be judge and execute justice between [a]you and me; and may He see and (E)plead my cause and execute justice for me to escape from your hand.”

13 As the old saying goes, ‘From evildoers come evil deeds,(A)’ so my hand will not touch you.
14 “Against whom has the king of Israel come out? Who are you pursuing? A dead dog?(B) A flea?(C) 15 May the Lord be our judge(D) and decide(E) between us. May he consider my cause and uphold(F) it; may he vindicate(G) me by delivering(H) me from your hand.”
