1 Samuel 24:7 In-Context

5 And it came to pass afterward that David's heart smote him because he had cut off Saul's skirt.
6 And he said unto his men, "The LORD forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, the LORD'S anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD."
7 So David stayed his servants with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave and went on his way.
8 David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave and cried after Saul, saying, "My lord the king." And when Saul looked behind him, David stooped with his face to the earth and bowed himself.
9 And David said to Saul, "Why hearest thou men's words, saying, `Behold, David seeketh thy hurt?'
