1 Samuel 19:9-11

Living Bible

^9-10 But one day as Saul was sitting at home, listening to David playing the harp, suddenly the tormenting spirit from the Lord attacked him. He had his spear in his hand and hurled it at David in an attempt to kill him. But David dodged out of the way and fled into the night, leaving the spear imbedded in the timber of the wall. ¹¹ Saul sent troops to watch David’s house and kill him when he came out in the morning.

“If you don’t get away tonight,” Michal warned him, “you’ll be dead by morning.”
