1 Samuel 23:21

David Eludes Saul's Pursuit

²⁰ Now, whenever the king wants to come down, let him come down. Our part will be to hand him over to the king.” ²¹ “May you be blessed by the Lord,” replied Saul, “for you have taken pity on me. ²² Go and check again. Investigate and watch carefully where he goes and who has seen him there; they tell me he is extremely cunning.

Blessed are

Lord Bless You

1 Samuel 22:8

That’s why all of you have conspired against me! Nobody tells me when my own son makes a covenant with Jesse’s son. None of you cares about me or tells me that my son has stirred up my own servant to wait in ambush for me, as is the case today.”

Judges 17:2

He said to his mother, “The 1,100 pieces of silver taken from you, and that I heard you utter a curse about—here, I have the silver with me. I took it. So now I return it to you.”

Then his mother said, “My son, you are blessed by the Lord!”

Psalm 10:3

For the wicked one boasts about his own cravings;
the one who is greedy curses and despises the Lord.

Isaiah 66:5

You who tremble at His word,
hear the word of the Lord:
“Your brothers who hate and exclude you
because of Me have said,
‘Let the Lord be glorified
so that we can see your joy!’
But they will be put to shame.”

Micah 3:11

Her leaders issue rulings for a bribe,
her priests teach for payment,
and her prophets practice divination for money.
Yet they lean on the Lord, saying,
“Isn’t the Lord among us?
No disaster will overtake us.”
