no need for revenge

1 Samuel 26

David took a spear and a water jar as evidence that he – once again – came close enough to Saul to kill him, but spared his life.  His confidence was in God’s ultimate judgment.  Since he was God’s man, his enemies were God’s enemies, so he felt no need for revenge. 

LORD, we declare our trust in you.  We refuse to seek revenge, We leave justice in your hands.
