11. False witnesses did rise up. This is
the old device of the ungodly, and we must not wonder if it be used against us
as against our Master. To please Saul, there were always men to be found mean
enough to impeach David. They laid to my charge things that I knew not.
He had not even a thought of sedition; he was loyal even to excess; yet they
accused him of conspiring against the Lord’s anointed. He was not only
innocent, but ignorant of the fault alleged. It is well when our hands are so
clean that no trace of dirt is upon them.
