²² “Here’s your spear,” David answered. “Send one of your young men over to get it. ²³ The Lord rewards everyone for doing what is right and being faithful. He handed you over to me today. But I wouldn’t harm you. You are the Lord’s anointed king. ²⁴ Today I thought your life had great value. In the same way, may the Lord think of my life as having great value. May he save me from all trouble.”
