1 Samuel 16:11-15
11Then SamuelH8050 saidH559 to JesseH3448, “AreH8552 these allH8552 the boysH5288?” And he saidH559, “1The youngestH6996 is stillH5750 leftH7604, but beholdH2009, he is tendingH7462 the sheepH6629.” So SamuelH8050 saidH559 to JesseH3448, “SendH7971 word and bringH3947 him; for we will not takeH5437 our placesH5437 atH5437 the tableH5437 untilH5704 he comesH935 hereH6311.” 12So he sentH7971 word and broughtH935 him inH935. Now he was 2reddishH132, with 3beautifulH3303 eyesH5869 and a handsomeH2896 appearanceH7210. And the LordH3068 saidH559, “4AriseH6965, anointH4886 him; for thisH2088 is he.” 13So SamuelH8050 tookH3947 the hornH7161 of oilH8081 and 5anointedH4886 him in the midstH7130 of his brothersH251; and 6the SpiritH7307 of the LordH3068 rushedH6743 uponH5921 DavidH1732 from that dayH3117 forwardH4605. And SamuelH8050 setH6965 outH6965 and wentH1980 to RamahH7414.
147Now the SpiritH7307 of the LordH3068 leftH5493 SaulH7586, and 8an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from the LordH3068 terrifiedH1204 him. 15Saul’sH7586 servantsH5650 then saidH559 to him, “BeholdH2009 nowH4994, an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from GodH430 is terrifyingH1204 you.
