1 Samuel 19:4-5

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁴ Jonathan spoke well of David to his father Saul. He said to him: “The king should not sin against his servant David.^(A) He hasn’t sinned against you; in fact, his actions have been a great advantage to you. ⁵ He took his life in his hands when he struck down the Philistine,^(B) and the Lord brought about a great victory for all Israel.^(C) You saw it and rejoiced, so why would you sin against innocent blood by killing David for no reason?”^(D)
