1 Samuel 24:5-7
Common English Bible
5 But immediately David felt horrible that he had cut off a corner of Saul’s robe.[a]
6 “The Lord forbid,” he told his men, “that I should do something like that to my master, the Lord’s anointed, or lift my hand against him, because he’s the Lord’s anointed!” 7 So David held his soldiers in check by what he said,[b] and he wouldn’t allow them to attack Saul. Saul then left the cave and went on his way.
