1 Samuel 19:9-11

Revised Geneva Translation

⁹ And the spirit of misery from the LORD was upon Saul as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand. And David played with his hand.

¹⁰ And Saul intended to pin David to the wall with the spear. But he turned aside, out of Saul’s presence. And he struck the spear against the wall. But David fled and escaped that same night.

¹¹ Saul also sent messengers to David’s house, to watch him and to kill him in the morning. And Michal, David’s wife, told it to him, saying, “If you do not save yourself this night, tomorrow you shall be killed.
