1 SAMUEL 24:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand: for in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know thou and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in mine hand, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou huntest my soul to take it.”
See now, this day the LORD has delivered your enemy into your hand — David's *v'hineh hayom hazeh yadeta ki natan elohim otcha b'yadi v'lo ahatzta*, see now, this day, proves that David has had Saul completely in his power but has chosen not to strike. The *v'lo ahatzta*, and I did not kill you, becomes David's testament, his evidence of virtue and piety.
