1 Samuel 26:14-16

Lexham English Bible

¹⁴ David called out to the army and to Abner the son of Ner, “Will you not answer, Abner?” And Abner answered and said, “Who are you that you call to the king?” ¹⁵ So David said to Abner, “Are you not a man? And who is like you in Israel? Why did you not keep watch over your lord the king? For one of the people came to destroy^[a] your lord the king. ¹⁶ This thing that you have done is not good. As Yahweh lives,^[b] surely you people deserve to die^[c] since you have not kept watch over your lord, over Yahweh’s anointed one! So then, see where the king’s spear is and the jar of water that was near his head!”
