17 And he said to David, You are more righteous than I; for you have rewarded me with good, whereas I have rewarded you with evil. 18 And you have showed this day how you have dealt well with me, in that the LORD had delivered me into your hands, and you did not kill me. 19 For when a man finds his enemy, and lets him go free, the LORD will reward him with good; wherefore the LORD reward you with good for what you have done to me this day. 20 And now, behold, I know well that you shall surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in your hand. 21 Swear now therefore to me by the LORD that you will not cut off my descendants after me and that you will not destroy my name out of my father's house. 22 So David swore to Saul. And Saul went to his home; but David and the men who were with him went up to Mizpeh. 1 Samuel 24:17-22, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
