7 So Jonathan summoned David and told him everything they had talked about. Then Jonathan brought David back to Saul, and David served Saul as he had previously.
8 War broke out again. When David went out to fight the Philistines, he struck them with such force that they ran from him.
9 Then an evil spirit from the Lord came over Saul. He was sitting in his house with his spear in hand while David was playing music.
10 Saul tried to pin David to the wall with his spear, but David escaped Saul. Saul drove the spear into the wall, but David fled and got away safely. That night
11 Saul sent messengers to David’s house to keep watch on it and kill him in the morning. David’s wife Michal warned him, "If you don’t escape with your life tonight, you are a dead man tomorrow."
12 So Michal lowered David through a window. He took off and ran, and he got away.
13 Then Michal took the household’s divine image and laid it in the bed, putting some goat’s hair on its head and covering it with clothes.
