1 Samuel 16:20-23 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

20. And Yishai took a donkey loaded with bread, and a skin of wine, and a young goat, and sent them by his son Dawiḏ to Sha’ul.

21. And Dawiḏ came to Sha’ul and stood before him. And he loved him greatly, and he became his armour-bearer.

22. Sha’ul therefore sent to Yishai, saying, “Please let Dawiḏ stand before me, for he has found favour in my eyes.”

23. And it came to be, whenever the evil spirit from Elohim was upon Sha’ul, that Dawiḏ would take a lyre and play it with his hand. Then Sha’ul would become refreshed and well, and the evil spirit would leave him.
