1 Samuel 18:8-14
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.
10And it came to pass on the morrow, that an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from GodH430 came mightily upon SaulH7586, and he prophesiedH5012 in the midstH8432 of the houseH1004: and DavidH1732 playedH5059 with his handH3027, as he did dayH3117 by dayH3117. And SaulH7586 had his spearH2595 in his handH3027; 11and SaulH7586 cast the spearH2595; for he saidH559, I will smite DavidH1732 even to the wallH7023. And DavidH1732 avoided out of his presenceH6440 twice. 12And SaulH7586 wasH1961 afraidH3372 of DavidH1732, because Jehovah wasH1961 with him, and wasH1961 departedH5493 from SaulH7586. 13Therefore SaulH7586 removedH5493 him from him, and madeH7760 him his captain over a thousandH505; and he wentH3318 out and cameH935 in before the peopleH5971. 14And DavidH1732 behaved himself wisely in all his waysH1870; and Jehovah wasH1961 with him.
