1 Samuel 24:5-7

Revised Geneva Translation

⁵ And the men of David said to him, “Behold, the day has come of which the LORD said to you, ‘Behold, I will deliver your enemy into your hand and you shall do to him as it shall seem good to you.’” Then David arose and stealthily cut off the lap of Saul’s garment.

⁶ And afterward, David was touched in his heart, because he had cut off the lap which was on Saul’s garment.

⁷ And he said to his men, “The LORD keep me from doing that thing to my master, the LORD’s anointed, to lay my hand upon him. For he is the anointed of the LORD.”
