1 Samuel 18:9-11

Good News Translation

⁹ And so he was jealous and suspicious of David from that day on.

¹⁰ The next day an evil spirit from God suddenly took control of Saul, and he raved in his house like a madman. David was playing the harp, as he did every day, and Saul was holding a spear. ¹¹ “I'll pin him to the wall,” Saul said to himself, and he threw the spear at him twice; but David dodged each time.
