1 Samuel 24 10-1 Samuel 24 15
Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how that the LORD had delivered thee to day into mine hand in the cave: and[ some] bade[ me] kill thee: but[ mine eye] spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth mine hand against my lord; for he[ is] the LORD’S anointed.Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand: for in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou and see that[ there is] neither evil nor transgression in mine hand, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou huntest my soul to take it.The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea.The LORD therefore be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thine hand.

1 Samuel 26 9-1 Samuel 26 17
And David said to Abishai, Destroy him not: for who can stretch forth his hand against the LORD’S anointed, and be guiltless?David said furthermore,[ As] the LORD liveth, the LORD shall smite him; or his day shall come to die; or he shall descend into battle, and perish.The LORD forbid that I should stretch forth mine hand against the LORD’S anointed: but, I pray thee, take thou now the spear that[ is] at his bolster, and the cruse of water, and let us go.So David took the spear and the cruse of water from Saul’s bolster; and they gat them away, and no man saw[ it], nor knew[ it], neither awaked: for they[ were] all asleep; because a deep sleep from the LORD was fallen upon them.Then David went over to the other side, and stood on the top of an hill afar off; a great space[ being] between them:And David cried to the people, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, Answerest thou not, Abner? Then Abner answered and said, Who[ art] thou[ that] criest to the king?And David said to Abner,[ Art] not thou a[ valiant] man? and who[ is] like to thee in Israel? wherefore then hast thou not kept thy lord the king? for there came one of the people in to destroy the king thy lord.This thing[ is] not good that thou hast done.[ As] the LORD liveth, ye[ are] worthy to die, because ye have not kept your master, the LORD’S anointed. And now see where the king’s spear[ is], and the cruse of water that[ was] at his bolster.And Saul knew David’s voice, and said,[ Is] this thy voice, my son David? And David said,[ It is] my voice, my lord, O king.

Jeremiah 18:20-21
Shall evil be recompensed for good? for they have digged a pit for my soul. Remember that I stood before thee to speak good for them,[ and] to turn away thy wrath from them.Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour out their[ blood] by the force of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and[ be] widows; and let their men be put to death;[ let] their young men[ be] slain by the sword in battle.

1 Samuel 19 4-1 Samuel 19 5
And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and because his works[ have been] to thee-ward very good:For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest[ it], and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?
