1 Samuel 19:9-11

Lexham English Bible

⁹ Then the evil spirit from Yahweh came upon Saul while he was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand. And David was playing a stringed instrument in his hand. ¹⁰ So Saul tried to pin David to the wall with the spear,^[a] but he eluded Saul,^[b] so that he struck the spear into the wall, and David fled and escaped that same night.

¹¹ Then Saul sent messengers to David’s house to guard him and to kill him in the morning, but Michal his wife told David, saying, “If you do not save your life^[c] tonight, then tomorrow you will be killed!”
