New King James Version
9 But David said to Abishai, “Do not destroy him; (A)for who can stretch out his hand against the Lord’s anointed, and be guiltless?” 10 David said furthermore, “As the Lord lives, (B)the Lord shall strike him, or (C)his day shall come to die, or he shall (D)go out to battle and perish. 11 (E)The Lord forbid that I should stretch out my hand against the Lord’s anointed. But please, take now the spear and the jug of water that are by his head, and let us go.”

9 But David said to Abishai, “Don’t destroy him! Who can lay a hand on the Lord’s anointed(A) and be guiltless?(B) 10 As surely as the Lord lives,” he said, “the Lord himself will strike(C) him, or his time(D) will come and he will die,(E) or he will go into battle and perish. 11 But the Lord forbid that I should lay a hand on the Lord’s anointed. Now get the spear and water jug that are near his head, and let’s go.”
