But the Spirit
<07307>

of the LORD
<03068>

departed
<05493> (8804)

from Saul
<07586>_,

and an evil
<07451>

spirit
<07307>

from the LORD
<03068>

troubled
<01204> (8765)

him. {troubled: or, terrified}

16:15

And Saul's
<07586>

servants
<05650>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Behold now, an evil
<07451>

spirit
<07307>

from God
<0430>

troubleth
<01204> (8764)

thee.

16:16

Let our lord
<0113>

now command
<0559> (8799)

thy servants
<05650>_,

[which are] before
<06440>

thee, to seek out
<01245> (8762)

a man
<0376>_,

[who is] a cunning
<03045> (8802)

player
<05059> (8764)

on an harp
<03658>_:

and it shall come to pass, when the evil
<07451>

spirit
<07307>

from God
<0430>

is upon thee, that he shall play
<05059> (8765)

with his hand
<03027>_,

and thou shalt be well
<02895> (8804)_.

16:17

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his servants
<05650>_,

Provide
<07200> (8798)

me now a man
<0376>

that can play
<05059> (8763)

well
<03190> (8688)_,

and bring
<0935> (8689)

[him] to me.

16:18

Then answered
<06030> (8799)

one
<0259>

of the servants
<05288>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, I have seen
<07200> (8804)

a son
<01121>

of Jesse
<03448>

the Bethlehemite
<01022>_,

[that is] cunning
<03045> (8802)

in playing
<05059> (8763)_,

and a mighty
<01368>

valiant man
<02428>_,

and a man
<0376>

of war
<04421>_,

and prudent
<0995> (8737)

in matters
<01697>_,

and a comely
<08389>

person
<0376>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

[is] with him. {matters: or, speech}

<07586>

sent
<07971> (8799)

Send
<07971> (8798)

me David
<01732>

thy son
<01121>_,

which [is] with the sheep
<06629>_.

16:20

And Jesse
<03448>

took
<03947> (8799)

an ass
<02543>

[laden] with bread
<03899>_,

and a bottle
<04997>

of wine
<03196>_,

and a
<0259>

kid
<01423> <05795>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

[them] by
<03027>

David
<01732>

his son
<01121>

unto Saul
<07586>_.

16:21

And David
<01732>

came
<0935> (8799)

to Saul
<07586>_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

him: and he loved
<0157> (8799)

him greatly
<03966>_;

<07586>

sent
<07971> (8799)

<01732>_,

I pray thee, stand
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

me; for he hath found
<04672> (8804)

favour
<02580>

in my sight
<05869>_.

<03947> (8804)

an harp
<03658>_,

and played
<05059> (8765)

with his hand
<03027>_:

so Saul
<07586>

was refreshed
<07304> (8804)_,
