1 Samuel 24:4-7

CAB(i) 4 (24:5) And the men of David said to him, Behold, this is the day of which the Lord spoke to you, that He would deliver your enemy into your hands; and you shall do to him as it is good in your sight. So David arose and cut off the skirt of Saul's garment secretly. 5 (24:6) And it came to pass after this that David's heart troubled him because he had cut off the skirt of his garment. 6 (24:7) And David said to his men, The Lord forbid that I should do this thing to my master, the Lord's anointed, to lift my hand against him; for he is the anointed of the Lord. 7 (24:8) So David persuaded his men by his words, and did not allow them to rise up and kill Saul. And Saul arose and went his way.
