1 Samuel 24:4-6

New International Version - UK

⁴ The men said, ‘This is the day the Lord spoke of when he said^[a] to you, “I will give your enemy into your hands for you to deal with as you wish.”’ Then David crept up unnoticed and cut off a corner of Saul’s robe.

⁵ Afterwards, David was conscience-stricken for having cut off a corner of his robe. ⁶ He said to his men, ‘The Lord forbid that I should do such a thing to my master, the Lord’s anointed, or lay my hand on him; for he is the anointed of the Lord.’
