1 Samuel 24:11-15

11 See, my father, see the corner of your robe in my hand. For by the fact that I cut off the corner of your robe and did not kill you, you may know and see that ^athere is no wrong or treason in my hands. I have not sinned against you, though ^byou hunt my life to take it. 12 ^cMay the Lord judge between me and you, may the Lord avenge me against you, but my hand shall not be against you. 13 As the proverb of the ancients says, ‘Out of the wicked comes wickedness.’ But my hand shall not be against you. 14 After whom has the king of Israel come out? After whom do you pursue? ^dAfter a dead dog! ^eAfter a flea! 15 ^fMay the Lord therefore be judge and give sentence between me and you, and see to it and ^gplead my cause and deliver me from your hand.”

1 Samuel 25:28

28 Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For the Lord will certainly make my lord ^ha sure house, because my lord ⁱis fighting the battles of the Lord, and evil shall not be found in you so long as you live.

5 let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake it,
and let him ^otrample my life to the ground
and lay my glory in the dust. Selah

Psalms 18:20-24

20 The Lord dealt with me ^paccording to my righteousness;
according to ^qthe cleanness of my hands he rewarded me.
21 For I have ^rkept the ways of the Lord,
and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22 For ^sall his rules ^{▼▼Or just decrees} were before me,
and his statutes I did not put away from me.
23 I was ^ublameless before him,
and I kept myself from my guilt.
24 So the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness,
according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
