← 1 Samuel 24:13	1 Samuel 24:14 (KJV)	1 Samuel 24:15 →
As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.	After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea.	The LORD therefore be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thine hand.
