8Then SaulH7586 becameH2734 veryH3966 angryH2734, for thisH2088 sayingH1697 1displeasedH7489H5869 him; and he saidH559, “They have ascribedH5414 to DavidH1732 tenH7233 thousandsH7233, but to me they have ascribedH5414 thousandsH505. Now 2what 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 3an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from GodH430 cameH6743 mightilyH6743 upon SaulH7586, and 4he ravedH5012 in the midstH8432 of the houseH1004, while DavidH1732 was playingH5059 the harp with his handH3027, 56as usualH3117; and 78a spearH2595 was in Saul’sH7586 handH3027. 119SaulH7586 hurledH2904 the spearH2595 for he thoughtH559, “I will 10pinH5221 DavidH1732 to the wallH7023.” But DavidH1732 11escapedH5437 from his presenceH6440 twiceH6471.
