Saul seemed to realize that God had chosen David as his replacement, but contrary to Saul's belief David never planned any sort of rebellion, only fleeing from Saul when he attacked. In fact, on two occasions David had a chance to kill Saul (once when he was sleeping, once when they were in a dark cave where Saul could not see him) but refused, claiming that Saul was still God's anointed and thus inviolable. When Saul was killed by an Amalekite David had the perpetrator killed.
