And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of En-gedi. 1 1Sa 23:28-291Sa 23:19Ezk 22:9Hos 7:3Pro 25:5Pro 29:12 Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats. 1Sa 26:21Sa 13:2Psa 104:18Psa 141:6Psa 37:32Psa 38:12 And he came to the sheepcotes by the way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men remained in the sides of the cave. Jdg 3:24Psa 142:1-7Psa 57:1-11Psa 141:6 And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which the LORD said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thine hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul’s robe privily. 2 1Sa 26:8-111Sa 24:101Sa 26:231Sa 25:28-301Sa 23:171Sa 23:71Sa 24:182Sa 4:8 And it came to pass afterward, that David’s heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul’s skirt. 2Sa 24:101Jn 3:20-212Ki 22:192Sa 12:9 And he said unto his men, The LORD forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, the LORD’s anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD. 2Sa 1:141Sa 26:9-11Job 31:29-30Rom 12:141Ki 21:31Th 5:15Mat 5:44 So David stayed his servants with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way. 3 Mat 5:44Psa 7:41Sa 25:33Rom 12:17-21 David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave, and cried after Saul, saying, My lord the king. And when Saul looked behind him, David stooped with his face to the earth, and bowed himself. 1Sa 25:23-241Sa 20:411Sa 26:17Exo 20:12Gen 17:3Rom 13:71Pe 2:17
¶ And David said to Saul, Wherefore hearest thou men’s words, saying, Behold, David seeketh thy hurt? Ecc 7:21-22Pro 29:121Sa 26:19Jas 3:6Lev 19:16Pro 16:28Pro 17:4Pro 18:8 Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how that the LORD had delivered thee to day into mine hand in the cave: and some bade me kill thee: but mine eye spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth mine hand against my lord; for he is the LORD’s anointed. 1Sa 24:4Psa 105:151Sa 26:8-9 Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand: for in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in mine hand, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou huntest my soul to take it. 1Sa 26:201Sa 23:141Sa 23:231Sa 26:182Ki 5:13Jhn 15:251Sa 18:27Ezk 13:18 The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.

Mat 7:20Mat 7:16-18Mat 12:33-34Mat 15:19 After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea. 1Sa 26:201Sa 17:432Sa 9:81Ki 21:72Sa 16:92Sa 3:8Jdg 8:1-32Sa 6:20 The LORD therefore be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thine hand. 4 Psa 43:1Psa 119:154Psa 35:11Sa 24:12Mic 7:92Ch 24:22Mic 1:21Sa 26:4
¶ And it came to pass, when David had made an end of speaking these words unto Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept. 1Sa 26:17Act 6:10Gen 33:4Job 6:25Luk 21:15Pro 15:1Pro 25:11 And he said to David, Thou art more righteous than I: for thou hast rewarded me good, whereas I have rewarded thee evil. Mat 5:441Sa 26:21Gen 38:26Rom 12:20-21Exo 9:27Mat 27:4Psa 37:6 And thou hast shewed this day how that thou hast dealt well with me: forasmuch as when the LORD had delivered me into thine hand, thou killedst me not. 5 1Sa 26:231Sa 23:121Sa 23:71Sa 24:101Sa 26:8Psa 31:8 For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well away? wherefore the LORD reward thee good for that thou hast done unto me this day. 1Sa 23:211Sa 26:25Jdg 17:2Pro 25:21-22Psa 18:20 And now, behold, I know well that thou shalt surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thine hand. 1Sa 23:172Sa 3:17-18Mat 2:3-61Sa 13:141Sa 20:30-31Job 15:25Mat 2:13Mat 2:16 Swear now therefore unto me by the LORD, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father’s house.
