1 Samuel 26:18-20

New American Standard Bible

¹⁸ He also said, “^(A)Why then is my lord pursuing his servant? For what have I done? Or what evil is in my hand? ¹⁹ Now then, please let my lord the king listen to the words of his servant. If ^(B)the Lord has incited you against me, ^(C)may He ^[a]accept an offering; but ^(D)if it is ^[b]people, cursed ^[c]are they before the Lord, because ^(E)they have driven me out today so that I would have no share in the inheritance of the Lord, saying, ‘Go, serve other gods.’ ²⁰ Now then, do not let my blood fall to the ground far from the presence of the Lord; for the king of Israel has come out to search for ^(F)a single flea, just as one hunts a partridge in the mountains.”
