1 Samuel 26:17-19
New International Reader's Version
17 Saul recognized David’s voice. He said, “My son David, is that your voice?”
David replied, “Yes it is, King Saul, my master.” 18 He continued, “Why are you chasing me? What evil thing have I done? What am I guilty of? 19 King Saul, please listen to what I’m saying. Was it the Lord who made you angry with me? If it was, may he accept my offering. Was it people who made you angry at me? If it was, may the Lord see them cursed. They have driven me today from my share of the Lord’s land. By doing that, they might as well have said, ‘Go and serve other gods.’

New International Version
17 Saul recognized David’s voice and said, “Is that your voice,(A) David my son?”
David replied, “Yes it is, my lord the king.” 18 And he added, “Why is my lord pursuing his servant? What have I done, and what wrong(B) am I guilty of? 19 Now let my lord the king listen(C) to his servant’s words. If the Lord has incited you against me, then may he accept an offering.(D) If, however, people have done it, may they be cursed before the Lord! They have driven me today from my share in the Lord’s inheritance(E) and have said, ‘Go, serve other gods.’(F)
