Shmuel Alef 26:18-20

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁸ And he said, Why doth adoni thus pursue after his eved? For what have I done? Or what ra’ah is in mine yad?

¹⁹ Now therefore, let adoni HaMelech hear the devarim of his eved. If Hashem have stirred thee up against me, let Him accept a minchah; but if they be bnei adam, cursed be they before Hashem; for they have driven me out this day from abiding in the nachalah of Hashem, saying, Go, serve elohim acharim.

²⁰ Now therefore, let not my dahm fall to the earth before the face of Hashem; for the Melech Yisroel is come out to search for a parosh (flea), as when one doth hunt the partridge in the harim.
