Saul recognized David’s voice. “Is that your voice, my servant David?” he asked. “It is my voice, Your Royal Majesty,” David answered.
He recognized it and said, “It is my son’s robe! A wild animal has eaten him! Joseph must have been torn to pieces!”
When David finished saying this, Saul asked, “Is that you speaking, my servant David?” and Saul cried loudly.
He told David, “You are more righteous than I. You treated me well while I treated you badly.
Later, David got up, left the cave, and called to Saul, “Your Majesty!” When Saul looked back, David knelt down with his face touching the ground.
