1 Samuel 24:12-14

Contemporary English Version

¹² I'll let the Lord decide which one of us has done right. I pray that the Lord will punish you for what you're doing to me, but I won't do anything to you. ¹³ An old proverb says, “Only evil people do evil things,” and so I won't harm you.

^14 (A) Why should the king of Israel be out chasing me, anyway? I'm as worthless as a dead dog or a flea.
