1 Samuel 18:6-9
6Now it happenedH1961 as they were comingH935, when DavidH1732 returnedH7725 from killingH5221 the PhilistineH6430, that 1the womenH802 cameH3318 outH3318 of allH3605 the citiesH5892 of IsraelH3478, singingH7891 and dancingH4246, to meetH7122 KingH4428 SaulH7586, with tambourinesH8596, with joyH8057 and with other 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 lyricH1697 7displeasedH7489H5869 him; and he saidH559, “They have givenH5414 DavidH1732 credit for tenH7233 thousandsH7233, but to me they have givenH5414 credit for only thousandsH505! Now what moreH5750 can he have but the 8kingdomH4410?” 9And SaulH7586 eyedH5870 DavidH1732 withH5870 suspicionH5870 from that dayH3117 on.
