1 Samuel 24:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ And he said to his men, “The LORD keep me from doing that thing to my master, the LORD’s anointed, to lay my hand upon him. For he is the anointed of the LORD.”

⁸ So David overcame his servants with these words and did not allow them to rise up against Saul. For Saul got up from the cave and went away.

⁹ Afterward, David also arose and went out of the cave and cried after Saul, saying, “O my lord the king!” And when Saul looked behind him, David turned his face to the ground and bowed himself.
