1 Samuel 26:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ David asked Ahimelech the Hittite and Abishai son of Zeruiah, Joab’s brother, “Who will go down into Saul’s camp with me?”

Abishai answered, “I’ll go with you.”

⁷ So that night David and Abishai went ·into Saul’s camp [^Lamidst the army]. Saul was asleep ·in [within] the ·middle [circle; ring] of the camp with his spear stuck in the ground near his head. Abner and the army were sleeping around Saul. ⁸ Abishai said to David, “Today God has ·handed [delivered] your enemy ·over to you [^Linto your hand]. Let me pin Saul to the ground with my spear. I’ll only have to do it once. I won’t need to ·hit [^Lstrike] him twice.”
