1 Samuel 26:22-24

Easy-to-Read Version

²² David answered, “Here is the king’s spear. Let one of your young men come here and get it. ²³ The Lord pays every man for what he does—he rewards him if he does right, and he punishes him if he does wrong. The Lord gave you to me today, but I wouldn’t harm the Lord’s chosen king. ²⁴ Today I showed you that your life is important to me. In the same way the Lord will show that my life is important to him. He will save me from every trouble.”
