1 Samuel 18:6-14

6It happenedH1961 as they were comingH935, when DavidH1732 returnedH7725 from killingH5221 the PhilistineH6430, that 1the womenH802 cameH3318 out of allH3605 the citiesH5892 of IsraelH3478, singingH7891 and dancingH4246, to meetH7122 KingH4428 SaulH7586, with tambourinesH8596, with joyH8057 and with 2musicalH7991 instrumentsH7991. 7The womenH802 3sangH6031 as they 4playedH7832, and saidH559, “5SaulH7586 has slainH5221 his thousandsH505, 6And DavidH1732 his tenH7233 thousandsH7233.” 8Then SaulH7586 becameH2734 veryH3966 angryH2734, for thisH2088 sayingH1697 7displeasedH7489H5869 him; and he saidH559, “They have ascribedH5414 to DavidH1732 tenH7233 thousandsH7233, but to me they have ascribedH5414 thousandsH505. Now 8what moreH5750 can he have but the kingdomH4410?” 9SaulH7586 lookedH5870 at DavidH1732 with suspicionH5870 from that dayH3117 on.

10Now it cameH1961 about on the nextH4283 dayH4283 that 9an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from GodH430 cameH6743 mightilyH6743 upon SaulH7586, and 10he ravedH5012 in the midstH8432 of the houseH1004, while DavidH1732 was playingH5059 the harp with his handH3027, 1112as usualH3117; and 1314a spearH2595 was in Saul’sH7586 handH3027. 1115SaulH7586 hurledH2904 the spearH2595 for he thoughtH559, “I will 16pinH5221 DavidH1732 to the wallH7023.” But DavidH1732 17escapedH5437 from his presenceH6440 twiceH6471.

12Now 18SaulH7586 was afraidH3372 of DavidH1732, 19for the LordH3068 was with him but 20had departedH5493 from SaulH7586. 13Therefore SaulH7586 removedH5493 him from 21his presenceH5973 and appointedH7760 him as his commanderH8269 of a thousandH505; and 22he wentH3318 out and cameH935 in beforeH6440 the peopleH5971. 14DavidH1732 was 23prosperingH7919 in allH3605 his waysH1870 for 24the LordH3068 was with him.
