1 Samuel 19:8-10

8When war broke out again, David went to fight the Philistines. He defeated them so decisively that they fled from him.

9Then an evil spirit from the Lord came over Saul while he was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand. David was strumming a tune.

10Saul tried to nail David to the wall with his spear. But David dodged it, and Saul’s spear struck the wall. David fled, escaping ⌞from Saul⌟ that night.
