1 Samuel 16:21-23
21Then David came to Saul and 12attended him; and Saul greatly loved him, and he became his armor bearer.
22So Saul sent word to Jesse, saying, “Let David now 3be my attendant for he has found favor in my sight.”
23So it came about whenever 4the evil spirit from God came to Saul, David would take the harp and play it with his hand; and Saul would feel relieved and become well, and the evil spirit would leave him.
