1 Samuel 24:17-19
Amplified Bible
17 He said to David, “You are more righteous and upright [in God’s eyes] than I; for you have done good to me, but I have done evil to you. 18 You have declared today the good that you have done to me, for when the Lord put me into your hand, you did not kill me. 19 For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him go away [a]unharmed? So may the Lord reward you with good in return for what you have done for me this day.
