1 Samuel 24:7 ASV

⁵  And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt.

⁶  And he said unto his men, Jehovah forbid that I should do this thing unto my lord, Jehovah's anointed, to put forth my hand against him, seeing he is Jehovah's anointed.

⁷  So David checked his men with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. And Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.

⁸  David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave, and cried after Saul, saying, My lord the king. And when Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the earth, and did obeisance.

⁹  And David said to Saul, Wherefore hearkenest thou to men's words, saying, Behold, David seeketh thy hurt?
