1 Samuel 24:5-7

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁵ But afterward, David’s conscience bothered him because he had cut off the border of Saul’s robe. ⁶ He said to his men, “It would be unthinkable for me to raise my hand against His Majesty, the Lord’s anointed king, since he is the Lord’s anointed.” ⁷ So David stopped his men by saying this to them and didn’t let them attack Saul.

Saul left the cave and went out onto the road.
