Then David fled from Naioth at Ramah and went to Jonathan and asked,“ What have I done? What is my crime? How have I wronged your father, that he is trying to kill me?”

David was in Naioth at Ramah. He ran away from there to where Jonathan was. He asked him,“ What have I done? What crime have I committed? I haven’t done anything to harm your father. So why is he trying to kill me?”

Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah and came and said before Jonathan,“ What have I done? What is my guilt? And what is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?”

David fled from Naioth in Ramah and came to Jonathan and asked,“ What have I done? What did I do wrong? How have I sinned against your father so that he wants to take my life?”

So you see, the Lord knows how to rescue godly people from their trials, even while keeping the wicked under punishment until the day of final judgment.

When the report reached Saul that David was at Naioth in Ramah,he sent troops to capture him. But when they arrived and saw Samuel leading a group of prophets who were prophesying, the Spirit of God came upon Saul’s men, and they also began to prophesy.When Saul heard what had happened, he sent other troops, but they, too, prophesied! The same thing happened a third time.Finally, Saul himself went to Ramah and arrived at the great well in Secu.“ Where are Samuel and David?” he demanded.“ They are at Naioth in Ramah,” someone told him.But on the way to Naioth in Ramah the Spirit of God came even upon Saul, and he, too, began to prophesy all the way to Naioth!He tore off his clothes and lay naked on the ground all day and all night, prophesying in the presence of Samuel. The people who were watching exclaimed,“ What? Is even Saul a prophet?”

The Lord rewarded me for doing right; he restored me because of my innocence.For I have kept the ways of the Lord; I have not turned from my God to follow evil.I have followed all his regulations; I have never abandoned his decrees.I am blameless before God; I have kept myself from sin.The Lord rewarded me for doing right. He has seen my innocence.

Praise the Lord, who did not let their teeth tear us apart!We escaped like a bird from a hunter’s trap. The trap is broken, and we are free!Our help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

We can say with confidence and a clear conscience that we have lived with a God given holiness and sincerity in all our dealings. We have depended on God’s grace, not on our own human wisdom. That is how we have conducted ourselves before the world, and especially toward you.

O Lord my God, if I have done wrong or am guilty of injustice,if I have betrayed a friend or plundered my enemy without cause,then let my enemies capture me. Let them trample me into the ground and drag my honor in the dust. Interlude

And he said to David,“ You are a better man than I am, for you have repaid me good for evil.

Look, my father, at what I have in my hand. It is a piece of the hem of your robe! I cut it off, but I didn’t kill you. This proves that I am not trying to harm you and that I have not sinned against you, even though you have been hunting for me to kill me.

Now testify against me in the presence of the Lord and before his anointed one. Whose ox or donkey have I stolen? Have I ever cheated any of you? Have I ever oppressed you? Have I ever taken a bribe and perverted justice? Tell me and I will make right whatever I have done wrong.”

Then he shouted to Saul,“ Why do you listen to the people who say I am trying to harm you?

Saul and David were now on opposite sides of a mountain. Just as Saul and his men began to close in on David and his men,an urgent message reached Saul that the Philistines were raiding Israel again.So Saul quit chasing David and returned to fight the Philistines. Ever since that time, the place where David was camped has been called the Rock of Escape.

Dear friends, if we don’t feel guilty, we can come to God with bold confidence.
