[15:19]  ¹ tn Heb “listened to the voice of the Lord.”

[15:19]  ² tn Heb “you have done what is evil in the eyes of the Lord.”

[16:14]  ¹ tn Or “an injurious spirit”; cf. NLT “a tormenting spirit.” The phrase need not refer to an evil, demonic spirit. The Hebrew word translated “evil” may refer to the character of the spirit or to its effect upon Saul. If the latter, another translation option might be “a mischief-making spirit.”
