    9David got up afterward, went out of the cave, and called after Saul, 'My lord the king!' When Saul looked behind him, David bowed down with his face to the ground and paid homage.

    10David said to Saul, 'Why do you listen to the words of men who say, "David seeks your harm"?'

    11'This day you have seen with your own eyes how the LORD delivered you into my hands in the cave. Some urged me to kill you, but I spared you and said, "I will not lay my hand on my lord because he is the LORD’s anointed."'

    16What you have done is not good. As surely as the LORD lives, you deserve to die because you did not guard your lord, the LORD's anointed. Now, look around! Where are the king's spear and the jar of water that were near his head?"

    17Saul recognized David’s voice and said, "Is that your voice, my son David?" David replied, "It is my voice, my lord the king."

    18And he added, "Why is my lord pursuing his servant? What have I done, and what wrong is in my hand?

    19Now, may my lord the king please hear the words of his servant. If the LORD has incited you against me, may He accept an offering. But if men have done it, may they be cursed before the LORD, because they have driven me out today to prevent me from having a share in the LORD's inheritance, saying, 'Go, serve other gods.'

    20Now then, do not let my blood fall to the ground far from the presence of the LORD. For the king of Israel has come out to search for a single flea, as one hunts a partridge in the mountains.

    21Then Saul said, "I have sinned. Return, my son David, for I will not harm you again, because my life was precious in your sight today. Look, I have acted foolishly and have made a great mistake."

    22David answered and said, "Here is the king's spear. Let one of the young men come over and take it.

    23The LORD repays everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness, for the LORD delivered you into my hand today, but I would not lay my hand on the LORD's anointed.

    17When David finished speaking these words to Saul, Saul asked, 'Is that your voice, my son David?' And Saul wept aloud.

    18He said to David, 'You are more righteous than I, for you have treated me well, but I have treated you badly.'
