1 Samuel 24:3-5
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
3 He came to the sheepfolds beside the road, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to relieve himself.[a] Now David and his men were sitting in the innermost parts of the cave. 4 The men of David said to him, ‘Here is the day of which the Lord said to you, “I will give your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it seems good to you.”’ Then David went and stealthily cut off a corner of Saul’s cloak. 5 Afterwards David was stricken to the heart because he had cut off a corner of Saul’s cloak.
