1 Samuel 26:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 Then said Saul, I have sinned: Come again, my son David: for I will do thee no more harm, because my soul was [a]precious in thine eyes this day: behold, I have done foolishly, and have erred exceedingly.
22 Then David answered, and said, Behold the King’s spear, let one of the young men come over and fet it.
23 And let the Lord reward every man according to his [b]righteousness and faithfulness: for the Lord had delivered thee into mine hands this day, but I would not lay mine hand upon the Lord’s anointed.
