10 It came to pass the following day, that an evil spirit from God came upon Saul, so that he raved in the midst of the house. And David was playing the lyre, as at other times. Now there was a spear in Saul’s hand.
11 And Saul threw the spear. For he said, “I will pin David to the wall.” But David avoided him two times.
12 Saul was afraid of David because the Lord was with him but had departed from Saul.
13 Therefore Saul removed him from his presence and placed him as his captain over a thousand. And he went out and came in before the people.
14 David was successful in all his ways and the Lord was with him.
15 When Saul saw that he was very successful, he was afraid of him.
16 Now all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them.
