1 Samuel 24:11-13
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
11 See, my father, see the corner of your cloak in my hand; for by the fact that I cut off the corner of your cloak, and did not kill you, you may know for certain that there is no wrong or treason in my hands. I have not sinned against you, though you are hunting me to take my life. 12 May the Lord judge between me and you! May the Lord avenge me on you; but my hand shall not be against you. 13 As the ancient proverb says, “Out of the wicked comes forth wickedness”; but my hand shall not be against you.
