Expanded Bible

¹⁷ Saul ·knew [recognized] David’s voice. He said, “Is that your voice, David my son?”

David answered, “Yes, it is [^Lmy voice], my ·master [lord] and king.” ¹⁸ David also said, “Why are you ·chasing me [pursuing your servant], my ·master [lord]? What wrong have I done? What ·evil [crime] ·am I guilty of [^Lis in my hand]? ¹⁹ My ·master [lord] and king, listen to me. If the Lord ·made you angry with [^Lstirred you up/incited you against] me, let him accept an offering. But if people did it, may the Lord curse them! They have ·made me leave [driven me out today from] ·the land the Lord gave me [^Lmy share in the Lord’s inheritance/heritage]. They have told me, ‘Go and ·serve [worship] other gods.’
