1 Samuel 24:11

24:11 Look, my father, and see the edge of your robe in my hand! When I cut off the edge of your robe, I didn’t kill you. So realize and understand that I am not planning ¹  evil or rebellion. Even though I have not sinned against you, you are waiting in ambush to take my life.

1 Samuel 24:17

24:17 He said to David, “You are more innocent ²  than I, for you have treated me well, even though I have tried to harm you!
