1 Samuel 18:8-11 ▼

8 And it is exceedingly displeasing to Saul, and this thing is evil in his eyes, and he says, “They have given myriads to David, and they have given the thousands to me, and what more [is there] for him but the kingdom?”

9 And Saul is eyeing David from that day and from then on.

10 And it comes to pass, on the next day, that the spirit of sadness [from] God prospers over Saul, and he prophesies in the midst of the house, and David is playing with his hand, as [he did] day by day, and the javelin [is] in the hand of Saul,

11 and Saul casts the javelin and says, “I strike through David, even through the wall”; and David turns around out of his presence twice.
