1 Samuel 18:6-9

6And it cameH935 to pass as they cameH935, when DavidH1732 returnedH7725 from the slaughter of the PhilistineH6430, that the womenH802 cameH935 out of all the citiesH5892 of IsraelH3478, singingH7891 and dancingH4246, to meetH7122 kingH4428 SaulH7586, with timbrels, with joyH8057, and with instruments of music. 7And the womenH802 sang one to another as they playedH7832, and saidH559,

SaulH7586 hath slain his thousandsH505,And DavidH1732 his tenH7233 thousandsH505.

8And SaulH7586 was veryH3966 wroth, and this sayingH559 displeased him; and he saidH559, They have ascribed unto DavidH1732 tenH7233 thousandsH505, and to me they have ascribed but thousandsH505: and what can he have more but the kingdom? 9And SaulH7586 eyed DavidH1732 from that dayH3117 and forward.
