So David got up early in the morning, left the flock with a keeper, loaded up, and set out as Jesse had instructed him. He reached the camp as the army was marching out to its position and shouting the battle cry.

Then David set out and went to the place where Saul had camped. He saw the place where Saul and Abner son of Ner, the general of his army, had lain down. Saul was lying inside the inner circle of the camp, with the troops camped around him.

That night David and Abishai came to the troops, and Saul was lying there asleep in the inner circle of the camp, with his spear stuck in the ground by his head. And Abner and the troops were lying around him.

My steps have held to Your paths; my feet have not slipped.

He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness for the sake of His name.

You crown the year with Your bounty, and Your paths overflow with plenty.

The proud hide a snare for me; the cords of their net are spread along the path, and lures are set out for me. Selah

Then you will discern righteousness and justice and equity—every good path.

…whose paths are crooked and whose ways are devious.

For her house sinks down to death, and her tracks to the departed spirits.

I will guide you in the way of wisdom; I will lead you on straight paths.

Make a level path for your feet, and all your ways will be sure.

She does not consider the path of life; she does not know that her ways are unstable.

For a man’s ways are before the eyes of the LORD, and the LORD examines all his paths.

The path of the righteous is level; You clear a straight path for the upright.

The way of peace they have not known, and there is no justice in their tracks. They have turned them into crooked paths; no one who treads on them will know peace.
