1 Samuel 16:11-15
11And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto JesseH3448, Are hereH6311 all thy children? And he saidH559, There remaineth yetH5750 the youngestH6996, and, behold, he is keeping the sheepH6629. And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto JesseH3448, SendH7971 and fetch him; for we will not sit down till he comeH935 hither. 12And he sentH7971, and broughtH935 him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautifulH3303 countenance, and goodly to look upon. And Jehovah saidH559, AriseH6965, anointH4886 him; for this is he. 13Then SamuelH8050 tookH3947 the hornH7161 of oilH8081, and anointedH4886 him in the midstH7130 of his brethren: and the SpiritH7307 of Jehovah came mightily upon DavidH1732 from that dayH3117 forward. So SamuelH8050 roseH6965 up, and went to RamahH7414.
14Now the SpiritH7307 of Jehovah departedH5493 from SaulH7586, and an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from Jehovah troubled him. 15And Saul’s servantsH5650 saidH559 unto him, Behold now, an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from GodH430 troubleth thee.
