1 Samuel 24:13-15

Common English Bible

¹³ As the old proverb goes, ‘Evil deeds come from evildoers!’ but I won’t lift a hand against you. ¹⁴ So who is Israel’s king coming after? Who are you chasing? A dead dog? A single flea? ¹⁵ May the Lord be the judge and decide between you and me. May he see what has happened, argue my case, and vindicate me against you!”
