David cries after Saul and says his own hand will not be on the king

다윗이 사울의 뒤에서 외치고 자기 손이 왕을 해하지 아니하리라고 말함

1 Samuel 24:8–15: David also arises afterward, and goes out of the cave and cries after Saul, saying, “My lord the king!” When Saul looks behind him, David bows with his face to the earth, and shows respect. David says to Saul, “Why do you listen to men’s words, saying, ‘Behold, David seeks to harm you’? Behold, today your eyes have seen how the LORD had delivered you today into my hand in the cave. Some urged me to kill you, but I spared you. I said, ‘I will not stretch out my hand against my lord, for he is the LORD’s anointed.’ Moreover, my father, behold, yes, see the skirt of your robe in my hand; for in that I cut off the skirt of your robe and didn’t kill you, know and see that there is neither evil nor disobedience in my hand. I have not sinned against you, though you hunt for my life to take it. May the LORD judge between me and you, and may the LORD avenge me of you; but my hand will not be on you. As the proverb of the ancients says, ‘Out of the wicked comes wickedness;’ but my hand will not be on you. Against whom has the king of Israel come out? Whom do you pursue? A dead dog? A flea? May the LORD therefore be judge, and give sentence between me and you, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of your hand.” The Korean Revised Version gives 24:12 as a statement, not a wish: 여호와께서는 나와 왕 사이를 판단하사 나를 위하여 왕에게 보복하시려니와.
