1 Samuel 25:27-29
New American Standard Bible 1995
27 Now let (A)this [a]gift which your maidservant has brought to my lord be given to the young men who [b]accompany my lord. 28 Please forgive (B)the transgression of your maidservant; for (C)the Lord will certainly make for my lord an enduring house, because my lord is (D)fighting the battles of the Lord, and (E)evil will not be found in you all your days. 29 Should anyone rise up to pursue you and to seek your [c]life, then the [d]life of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of the living with the Lord your God; but the [e]lives of your enemies (F)He will sling out [f]as from the hollow of a sling.

27 And let this gift,(A) which your servant has brought to my lord, be given to the men who follow you.
28 “Please forgive(B) your servant’s presumption. The Lord your God will certainly make a lasting(C) dynasty for my lord, because you fight the Lord’s battles,(D) and no wrongdoing(E) will be found in you as long as you live. 29 Even though someone is pursuing you to take your life,(F) the life of my lord will be bound securely in the bundle of the living by the Lord your God, but the lives of your enemies he will hurl(G) away as from the pocket of a sling.(H)
