1 Samuel 24:9; 1 Samuel 24:11-14

9 He said to Saul, “Why do you listen when men say, ‘David is bent on harming you’?

13 As the old saying goes, ‘From evildoers come evil deeds,’ so my hand will not touch you.

14 “Against whom has the king of Israel come out? Who are you pursuing? A dead dog? A flea?
