And he said, Wherefore doth my lord thus pursue after his servant? for what have I done? or what evil is in mine hand?
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 18 is found in chapter 26 of 1 Samuel. From a safe distance, David confronts Saul and demonstrates that once again he could have killed him. David accuses those around the king of failing to protect him properly, but avoids turning the situation into an execution. He also asks why Saul is pursuing someone who poses no legitimate threat. David’s defense combines respect for the king with a denunciation of unjust persecution. The future ruler leaves the outcome to God.
