This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

1Sa_26:20 Now therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth before the face of the LORD: for the king of Israel is come out to seek a flea, as when one doth hunt a partridge in the mountains.

Ver. 20. Let not my blood fall to the earth.] Slay me not, for God seeth and will require it. {2Ch_24:22}

Ne pecces, Deus ipse videt, bonus Angelus astat.



To seek a flea, as when one doth hunt a partridge.] Out of his modesty and low mindedness, comparat se pulici et perdici, he compareth himself to these contemptible creatures, see 1Sa_24:14.
