1 Samuel 24

¹⁷ and said to David, “You are more righteous than I, for you have rewarded me with good, though I have rewarded you with evil.

¹⁸ And you have declared this day how you have treated me well, for when the LORD delivered me into your hand, you did not kill me.

¹⁹ When a man finds his enemy, does he let him go away unharmed? May the LORD reward you with good for what you have done for me this day.

²⁰ Now I know for sure that you will be king and that the kingdom of Israel will be established in your hands.

²¹ So now, swear to me by the LORD that you will not cut off my descendants or wipe out my name from my father’s house.”
