← 1 Samuel 24:11	1 Samuel 24:12 (KJV)	1 Samuel 24:13 →
Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand: for in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou and see that [there is] neither evil nor transgression in mine hand, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou huntest my soul to take it.	The LORD judge between me and thee, and the LORD avenge me of thee: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.	As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.
