8 Abishai (my father is a gift) said to David (beloved), “Today God {Elohim} has delivered your enemy into your hand. Now, therefore, please let me thrust the spear through him into the ground with one stroke. I will not need to strike him twice!”

9 But David (beloved) said to Abishai (my father is a gift), “Do not destroy him, for who can extend a hand against the LORD’s {YHWH} anointed and be guiltless?”
