1 Samuel 24:10
24:10 Today your own eyes see how the Lord delivered you – this very day – into my hands in the cave. Some told me to kill you, but I had pity 1 on you and said, ‘I will not extend my hand against my lord, for he is the Lord’s chosen one.’ 2
1 Samuel 24:12
24:12 May the Lord judge between the two of us, and may the Lord vindicate me over you, but my hand will not be against you.
1 tn Heb “it had pity,” apparently with the understood subject being “my eye,” in accordance with a common expression.
2 tn Heb “anointed.”
