# God has put your enemy into your hand
|
||||
|
||||
Abishai speaks as if the enemy were a small object that God had put into David's hand. The word "hand" is a metonym for the power the hand can wield. Alternate translation: "God has given you complete control over your enemy" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
|
||||
"God has given you complete control over your enemy". David has another opportunity to kill Saul but he refuses to kill the one God had chosen as king. This contrasts with Saul, who tried to find David and kill him. Saul came to admit that David was more righteous than he was because he did not kill his enemy.
