*
But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul ,
and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him .
*
And Saul '
s servants said unto him ,
Behold now ,
an evil spirit from God troubleth thee .
*
Let our lord now command thy servants ,
which are before thee ,
to seek out a man ,
who is a cunning player on an harp :
and it shall come to pass ,
when the evil spirit from God is upon thee ,
that he shall play with his hand ,
and thou shalt be well .
*
And Saul said unto his servants ,
Provide me now a man that can play well ,
and bring him to me .
*
Then answered one of the servants ,
and said ,
Behold ,
I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite ,
that is cunning in playing ,
and a mighty valiant man ,
and a man of war ,
and prudent in matters ,
and a comely person ,
and the LORD is with him .
*
Wherefore Saul sent messengers unto Jesse ,
and said ,
Send me David thy son ,
which is with the sheep .
