SEV Biblia, Chapter 24:5
Después de lo cual el corazón de David le hirió, porque había cortado la orilla de la ropa de Saúl.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 5. And it came to pass afterward, that David’s heart smote him , etc.] His conscience accused him, and he repented of what he had done: because he had cut off Saul’s skirt ; which though less than what his servants put him upon, and he might have thoughts of doing, yet was considered by him as a great indignity to his sovereign, and therefore sat uneasy on his mind.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-7 - God delivered Saul into David's hand. It was an opportunity given to David to exercise faith and patience. He had a promise of the kingdom but no command to slay the king. He reasons strongly, both with himsel and with his men, against doing Saul any hurt. Sin is a thing which it becomes us to startle at, and to resist temptations thereto. He no only would not do this bad thing himself, but he would not suffer thos about him to do it. Thus he rendered good for evil, to him from whom he received evil for good; and was herein an example to all who are calle Christians, not to be overcome of evil, but to overcome evil with good.
