1 Samuel 24 9-1 Samuel 24 15
David said to Saul,“ Why do you pay attention when men say,‘ David is seeking to do you harm’?Today your own eyes see how the LORD delivered you– this very day– into my hands in the cave. Some told me to kill you, but I had pity on you and said,‘ I will not extend my hand against my lord, for he is the LORD’s chosen one.’Look, my father, and see the edge of your robe in my hand! When I cut off the edge of your robe, I didn’t kill you. So realize and understand that I am not planning evil or rebellion. Even though I have not sinned against you, you are waiting in ambush to take my life.May the LORD judge between the two of us, and may the LORD vindicate me over you, but my hand will not be against you.It’s like the old proverb says:‘ From evil people evil proceeds.’ But my hand will not be against you.Who has the king of Israel come out after? Who is it that you are pursuing? A dead dog? A single flea?May the LORD be our judge and arbiter. May he see and arbitrate my case and deliver me from your hands!”

Nor did they tear their clothes to show any grief or sorrow.The king did not even listen to Elnathan, Delaiah, and Gemariah, who had urged him not to burn the scroll.
