1 Samuel 18:10-13 Common English Bible (CEB)

10. The next day an evil spirit from God came over Saul, and he acted like he was in a prophetic frenzy in his house. So David played the lyre as he usually did. Saul had a spear in his hand,

11. and he threw it, thinking, I’ll pin David to the wall. But David escaped from him two different times.

12. Saul was afraid of David because the Lord was with David but no longer with Saul.

13. So Saul removed David from his service, placing him in command of a unit of one thousand men. David led the men out to war and back.
