← 1 Samuel

---

• A. 18 And he said, Wherefore doth my lord thus pursue after his servant? for what have I done? or what evil is in mine hand?

• B. 19 Now therefore, I pray thee, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant.

• C. 19 If the LORD have stirred thee up against me, let him accept an offering:

• C'. 19 but if they be the children of men, cursed be they before the Lord; for they have driven me out this day from abiding in the inheritance of the LORD, saying, Go, serve other gods.

• B'. 20 Now therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth before the face of the LORD:

• A'. 20 for the king of Israel is come out to seek a flea, as when one doth hunt a partridge in the mountains.
