1 Samuel 18

¹⁰ The next day a spirit of distress sent from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied inside the house while David played the harp as usual. Now Saul was holding a spear,

¹¹ and he hurled it, thinking, “I will pin David to the wall.” But David eluded him twice.

¹² So Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with David but had departed from Saul.

¹³ Therefore Saul sent David away and gave him command of a thousand men. David led the troops out to battle and back,

¹⁴ and he continued to prosper in all his ways, because the LORD was with him.
