1 Samuel 24:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ Look, this very day you saw with your own eyes^[a] that the Lord gave you into my control in the cave, and one of my men^[b] told me to kill you, but I had pity^[c] on you and responded, ‘I won’t lift my hand against his majesty because he’s the Lord’s anointed.’ ¹¹ Look, my father, look! The corner of your robe is in my hand. Indeed, by my cutting off the corner of your robe and not killing you, you may know and understand that I have no evil intent or transgression—I haven’t wronged you, even though you are hunting me to take my life. ¹² May the Lord judge between me and you, and may he take vengeance on you for me, but I won’t be attacking you.
