As Yahweh lives, you are worthy to die, because you have not kept watch over your lord, Yahweh's anointed. Now see where the king's spear is, and the jar of water that was at his head. 17 Saul knew David's voice, and said, Is this your voice, my son David? David said, It is my voice, my lord, O king.
