1 Samuel 26:8-10

Expanded Bible

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.”

⁹ But David said to Abishai, “Don’t ·kill [^Ldestroy] Saul! ·No one [Who…?] can ·harm [raise a hand against] the Lord’s ·appointed king [anointed] and still be ·innocent [without guilt]! ¹⁰ As surely as the Lord lives, the Lord himself will ·punish Saul [strike him]. ·Maybe Saul will die naturally [^LHis day to die will come], or maybe he will go into battle and be killed.
