1 Samuel 24:5-7

International Children’s Bible

⁵ Later David felt guilty because he had cut off a corner of Saul’s robe. ⁶ He said to his men, “May the Lord keep me from doing such a thing to my master! Saul is the Lord’s appointed king. I should not do anything against him, because he is the Lord’s appointed king!” ⁷ David used these words to stop his men. He did not let them attack Saul. Then Saul left the cave and went his way.
