2 Samuel 1:14-16

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁴ David asked, “Why weren’t you afraid to take it upon yourself to destroy the Lord’s anointed king?” ¹⁵ Then David called one of ⌞his⌟ young men and told him, “Come here and attack him.” David’s young man executed him ¹⁶ while David said, “You are responsible for spilling your own blood. You testified against yourself when you said, ‘I killed the Lord’s anointed king.’ ”
