1 Samuel 24:9
“Saul, therefore, came out of the cave unaware of what had happened, wearing the little garment which had been trimmed all around.

7And David said to his men, The Lord forbid it me, that I should do this thing to my lord the anointed of the Lord, to lift my hand against him; for he is the anointed of the Lord.
8So David persuaded his men by his words, and did not suffer them to arise and slay Saul: and Saul arose and went his way.
— 1 Samuel 24:9 —
10And David said to Saul, Why dost thou hearken to the words of the people, saying, Behold, David seeks thy life?
11Behold, thine eyes have seen this day how that the Lord has delivered thee this day into my hands in the cave; and I would not slay thee, but spared thee, and said, I will not lift up my hand against my lord, for he is the Lord’s anointed.
