King James Bible - 1 Samuel 24:13

As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.

World English Bible

As the proverb of the ancients says, 'Out of the wicked comes forth wickedness;' but my hand shall not be on you.

Douay-Rheims - 1 Samuel 24:13

As also it is said in the old proverb: From the wicked shall wickedness come forth: therefore my hand shall not be upon thee. After whom dost thou come out, O king of Israel?

Webster's Bible Translation

As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but my hand shall not be upon thee.

SEV Biblia, Chapter 24:13

Como dice el proverbio del antiguo: De los impíos saldrá la impiedad; así que mi mano no será contra ti.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 24:13

Verse 13.
Wickedness proceeded from the wicked] This proverb may be thus understood: He that does a wicked act, gives proof thereby that he is a wicked man. From him who is wicked, wickedness will proceed; he who is wicked will add one iniquity to another. Had I conspired to dethrone thee, I should have taken thy life when it was in my power, and thus added wickedness to wickedness.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 13. As saith the
proverb of the ancients , etc.] It is an old saying, has been long in use, and may be applied to the present case; or the “proverb of the ancient one”; of the oldest man, the first man Adam, and of all others after him, so Kimchi; or of the Ancient One of the world, the Ancient of days, the Lord himself; so in the Talmud f480 : wickedness proceedeth from the wicked ; as is a man, so are his actions; if he is a wicked man, he will do wicked things; a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruits, an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil things; and as if David should say, if I had been the wicked man as I am represented, I should have committed wickedness; I should have made no conscience of taking away thy life when it was in my power; but my heart would not suffer me to do it: but , or “and” my hand shall not be upon thee ; as it has not been upon thee, because of the fear of God in me, so neither shall it be hereafter: or the sense of the proverb may be, the wickedness that comes from a wicked man, that will kill him, or be the cause of his ruin, or he will be slain by wicked men such as himself; and this may be thy case, O king, unless thou repentest: but be that as it may, which I leave with the righteous Judge, this I am determined on, “mine hand shall not be upon thee”; to take away thy life.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 8-15 -
David was falsely charged with seeking Saul's hurt; he shows Saul tha God's providence had given him opportunity to do it. And it was upon good principle that he refused to do it. He declares his fixe resolution never to be his own avenger. If men wrong us, God will righ us, at farthest, in the judgment of the great day.
