All the nations surrounded me, but in the name of the Lord I cut them down.They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the Lord I cut them down.They swarmed around me like bees, but they were consumed as quickly as burning thorns; in the name of the Lord I cut them down.I was pushed back and about to fall, but the Lord helped me.

1 Samuel 19 11-1 Samuel 19 17
Saul sent men to David’s house to watch it and to kill him in the morning. But Michal, David’s wife, warned him,“ If you don’t run for your life tonight, tomorrow you’ll be killed.”So Michal let David down through a window, and he fled and escaped.Then Michal took an idol and laid it on the bed, covering it with a garment and putting some goats’ hair at the head.When Saul sent the men to capture David, Michal said,“ He is ill.”Then Saul sent the men back to see David and told them,“ Bring him up to me in his bed so that I may kill him.”But when the men entered, there was the idol in the bed, and at the head was some goats’ hair.Saul said to Michal,“ Why did you deceive me like this and send my enemy away so that he escaped?” Michal told him,“ He said to me,‘ Let me get away. Why should I kill you?’”

Matthew 27:39-44
Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their headsand saying,“ You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! Come down from the cross, if you are the Son of God!”In the same way the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders mocked him.“ He saved others,” they said,“ but he can’t save himself! He’s the king of Israel! Let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him.He trusts in God. Let God rescue him now if he wants him, for he said,‘ I am the Son of God.’”In the same way the rebels who were crucified with him also heaped insults on him.

2 Samuel 15 10-2 Samuel 15 13
Then Absalom sent secret messengers throughout the tribes of Israel to say,“ As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpets, then say,‘ Absalom is king in Hebron.’”Two hundred men from Jerusalem had accompanied Absalom. They had been invited as guests and went quite innocently, knowing nothing about the matter.While Absalom was offering sacrifices, he also sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counselor, to come from Giloh, his hometown. And so the conspiracy gained strength, and Absalom’s following kept on increasing.A messenger came and told David,“ The hearts of the people of Israel are with Absalom.”
