1 Samuel 24:13-15

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹³ As the proverb of the ancients says, Out of the wicked comes forth wickedness; but my hand shall not be against you.

¹⁴ After whom has the king of Israel come out? After whom do you pursue? After a dead dog? After a flea?

¹⁵ May the Lord be judge and judge between me and you, and see and plead my cause, and deliver me out of your hands.^(A)
