 1 SAMUEL 24

Saul enters the cave where David is hiding, and David sneaks up on him and cuts off the end of his mantle. Because Saul has been anointed, David regrets this and forbids his men from harming Saul, and then he steps out of the cave to show himself. David convinces Saul that he is not a threat, and the two reconcile.
