Shmuel Alef 26:20-22

Orthodox Jewish Bible

²⁰ Now therefore, let not my dahm fall to the earth before the face of Hashem; for the Melech Yisroel is come out to search for a parosh (flea), as when one doth hunt the partridge in the harim.

²¹ Then said Sha’ul, I have sinned; return, beni Dovid; for I will no more do thee harm, because my nefesh was precious in thine eyes this day; hinei, I was foolish, and have erred exceedingly.

²² And Dovid answered and said, Hinei the khanit HaMelech! Let one of the ne’arim come over and bring it back.
