1 Samuel 26:17-19

Modern English Version

¹⁷ Saul knew David’s voice, and said, “Is this your voice, my son David?”

And David said, “It is my voice, my lord king.” ¹⁸ He said, “Why is my lord pursuing after his servant? For what have I done? Or what evil is in my hand? ¹⁹ Now please let my lord king hear the words of his servant. If the Lord has stirred you up against me, let Him accept an offering. But if it was the sons of men, cursed are they before the Lord. For they have driven me today from having a share in the inheritance of the Lord, saying, ‘Go, serve other gods.’
