But, please, take now the spear that is at his head and the jar of water, and let us go." 12 So David took the spear and the jar of water from Saul's head, and they departed, and no man saw it or knew it or awoke, for they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from the LORD had fallen upon them. 13 Then David went over to the other side and stood on the top of a hill a great distance away, a large space being between them. 14 And David cried out to the people and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, "Do you not answer, Abner?" Then Abner answered and said, "Who are you that cries to the king?" 15 And David said to Abner, "Are you not a valiant man? And who is like you in Israel? Why then have you not kept watch over your lord the king? For there came one of the people in to destroy the king your lord." 16 This thing you have done is not good. As the LORD lives, you are deserving of death because you have not kept your master, the LORD's anointed. And now see where the king's spear is, and the jar of water that was at his head." 17 And Saul recognized David's voice and said, "Is this your voice, my son David?" And David said, "It is my voice, my lord, O king."
