15 “And יהוה shall be judge, and rightly rule between you and me, and see and plead my case, and rightly rule me out of your hand.”
16 And it came to be, when Dawiḏ had ended speaking these words to Sha’ul, that Sha’ul said, “Is this your voice, my son Dawiḏ?” So Sha’ul lifted up his voice and wept.
17 And he said to Dawiḏ, “You are more righteous than I, for you have rewarded me with good, whereas I have rewarded you with evil.
18 “And you have shown today how you have done good to me, for when יהוה surrendered me into your hand you did not slay me.
19 “For if a man finds his enemy, shall he let him get away safely? And let יהוה reward you with good for what you have done to me today.
20 “And now look, I know that you shall certainly reign, and that the reign of Yisra’ĕl shall be established in your hand.
21 “And now, swear to me by יהוה that you do not cut off my seed after me, nor destroy my name from my father’s house.”
