1 Samuel 24:12-17
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 24
12
May the
Lord
judge between you and me, and may the
Lord
take vengeance on you for me; but my hand shall not be against you.
13
As the proverb of the ancients says, ‘Out of the wicked comes wickedness’; but my hand shall not be against you.
14
After whom has the king of Israel gone out? Whom are you pursuing? A dead dog, a single flea?
15
May the
Lord
therefore be judge and decide between you and me; and may He see and plead my cause and save me from your hand.'
16
When David had finished speaking these words to Saul, Saul said, 'Is this your voice, my son David?' Then Saul raised his voice and wept.
17
And he said to David, 'You are more righteous than I; for you have dealt well with me, while I have dealt maliciously with you.
King James Version
Chapter 24
12
The
Lord
judge between me and thee, and the
Lord
avenge me of thee: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.
13
As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.
14
After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea.
15
The
Lord
therefore be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thine hand.
16
And it came to pass, when David had made an end of speaking these words unto Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.
17
And he said to David, Thou art more righteous than I: for thou hast rewarded me good, whereas I have rewarded thee evil.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 24
12
"May the
Lord
judge between me and you, and may the
Lord
take vengeance on you for me, but my hand will never be against you.
13
As the old proverb says, ‘Wickedness comes from wicked people.’ My hand will never be against you.
14
Who has the king of Israel come after? What are you chasing after? A dead dog? A single flea?
15
May the
Lord
be judge and decide between you and me. May he take notice and plead my case and deliver me from you."
16
When David finished saying these things to him, Saul replied, "Is that your voice, David my son?" Then Saul wept aloud
17
and said to David, "You are more righteous than I, for you have done what is good to me though I have done what is evil to you.
New Living Translation
Chapter 24
12
May the
Lord
judge between us. Perhaps the
Lord
will punish you for what you are trying to do to me, but I will never harm you.
13
As that old proverb says, ‘From evil people come evil deeds.’ So you can be sure I will never harm you.
14
Who is the king of Israel trying to catch anyway? Should he spend his time chasing one who is as worthless as a dead dog or a single flea?
15
May the
Lord
therefore judge which of us is right and punish the guilty one. He is my advocate, and he will rescue me from your power!'
16
When David had finished speaking, Saul called back, 'Is that really you, my son David?' Then he began to cry.
17
And he said to David, 'You are a better man than I am, for you have repaid me good for evil.
English Standard Version
Chapter 24
12
May the
Lord
judge between me and you, may the
Lord
avenge me against you, but my hand shall not be against you.
13
As the proverb of the ancients says, ‘Out of the wicked comes wickedness.’ But my hand shall not be against you.
14
After whom has the king of Israel come out? After whom do you pursue? After a dead dog! After a flea!
15
May the
Lord
therefore be judge and give sentence between me and you, and see to it and plead my cause and deliver me from your hand."
16
As soon as David had finished speaking these words to Saul, Saul said, "Is this your voice, my son David?" And Saul lifted up his voice and wept.
17
He said to David, "You are more righteous than I, for you have repaid me good, whereas I have repaid you evil.
New International Version
Chapter 24
12
May the
Lord
judge between you and me. And may the
Lord
avenge the wrongs you have done to me, but my hand will not touch you.
13
As the old saying goes, ‘From evildoers come evil deeds,’ so my hand will not touch you.
14
"Against whom has the king of Israel come out? Who are you pursuing? A dead dog? A flea?
15
May the
Lord
be our judge and decide between us. May he consider my cause and uphold it; may he vindicate me by delivering me from your hand."
16
When David finished saying this, Saul asked, "Is that your voice, David my son?" And he wept aloud.
17
"You are more righteous than I," he said. "You have treated me well, but I have treated you badly.
New King James Version
Chapter 24
12
Let the
Lord
judge between you and me, and let the
Lord
avenge me on you. But my hand shall not be against you.
13
As the proverb of the ancients says, ‘Wickedness proceeds from the wicked.’ But my hand shall not be against you.
14
After whom has the king of Israel come out? Whom do you pursue? A dead dog? A flea?
15
Therefore let the
Lord
be judge, and judge between you and me, and see and plead my case, and deliver me out of your hand.”
16
So it was, when David had finished speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, “
Is
this your voice, my son David?” And Saul lifted up his voice and wept.
17
Then he said to David: “You
are
more righteous than I; for you have rewarded me with good, whereas I have rewarded you with evil.
