1 Samuel 16:14-19
14And the SpiritH7307 of Jehovah departedH5493 from SaulH7586, and an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from Jehovah troubled him.
15And Saul's servantsH5650 saidH559 to him, Behold now, an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from 1GodH430 troubles thee.
16Let our lordH113 now speak; thy servantsH5650 are before thee: they shall seekH1245 out a manH376, a skilful player on a harpH3658; and it shall come to pass, when the evilH7451 spiritH7307 from 2GodH430 is upon thee, that he shall playH5059 with his handH3027, and thou shalt beH1961 wellH2895.
17And SaulH7586 saidH559 to his servantsH5650, Provide me now a manH376 that can playH5059 wellH3190, and bringH935 him to me.
18And oneH259 of the youngH5288 menH376 answered and saidH559, Behold, I have seenH7200 a sonH1121 of JesseH3448 the Bethlehemite, who is skilledH995 in playingH5059, and he is a valiant manH376 and a manH376 of warH4421, and skilledH995 in speech, and of good presence, and Jehovah is with him.
19Then SaulH7586 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to JesseH3448 and saidH559, SendH7971 me DavidH1732 thy sonH1121, who is with the sheepH6629.
