This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

If the Lord have stirred thee up against me - By the evil spirit He had sent, or by any spiritual offenses by which we have mutually displeased Him.

let him accept an offering - that is, let us conjointly offer a sacrifice for appeasing His wrath against us.

if they be the children of men - The prudence, meekness, and address of David in ascribing the king’s enmity to the instigations of some malicious traducers, and not to the jealousy of Saul himself, is worthy of notice.

saying, Go, serve other gods - This was the drift of their conduct. By driving him from the land and ordinances of the true worship, into foreign and heathen countries, they were exposing him to all the seductions of idolatry.
