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 24:18

24:18 You have explained today how you have treated me well. The Lord delivered me into your hand, but you did not kill me.

[24:10]  ¹ tn Heb “it had pity,” apparently with the understood subject being “my eye,” in accordance with a common expression.

[24:10]  ² tn Heb “anointed.”
