New Century Version

1 Samuel 26:21-25 New Century Version (NCV)

21. Then Saul said, “I have sinned. Come back, David my son. Today you respected my life, so I will not try to hurt you. I have been very stupid and foolish.”

22. David answered, “Here is your spear. Let one of your young men come here and get it.

23. The Lord rewards us for the things we do right and for our loyalty to him. The Lord handed you over to me today, but I wouldn’t harm the Lord’s appointed king.

24. As I respected your life today, may the Lord also respect my life and save me from all trouble.”

25. Then Saul said to David, “You are blessed, my son David. You will do great things and succeed.”So David went on his way, and Saul went back home.
