1 Samuel 24:15 DBY

¹³  As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked; but my hand shall not be upon thee.

¹⁴  After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a single flea.

¹⁵  Jehovah therefore shall be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and do me justice [in delivering me] out of thy hand.

¹⁶  And as soon as David had ended speaking these words to Saul, Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice and wept.

¹⁷  And he said to David, Thou art more righteous than I; for thou hast rewarded me good, whereas I have rewarded thee evil.
