1 Samuel 19:4-5

New International Version

⁴ Jonathan spoke^(A) well of David to Saul his father and said to him, “Let not the king do wrong^(B) to his servant David; he has not wronged you, and what he has done has benefited you greatly. ⁵ He took his life^(C) in his hands when he killed the Philistine. The Lord won a great victory^(D) for all Israel, and you saw it and were glad. Why then would you do wrong to an innocent^(E) man like David by killing him for no reason?”
