1 Samuel 26:8-10 English Revised Version (ERV)

8. Then said Abishai to David, God hath delivered up thine enemy into thine hand this day: now therefore let me smite him, I pray thee, with the spear to the earth at one stroke, and I will not smite him the second time.

9. And David said to Abishai, Destroy him not: for who can put forth his hand against the LORD'S anointed, and be guiltless?

10. And David said, As the LORD liveth, the LORD shall smite him; or his day shall come to die; or he shall go down into battle, and perish.
