And Saul said unto his servants Approving of, and pleased with the advice they gave:
provide me now a man that can play well, and bring him to me; for being a sovereign prince, he could command whom he would to attend to his person and service.
15
Saul's officials told him, "An evil spirit from God is tormenting you.
16
Your Majesty, why don't you command us to look for a man who can play the lyre well? When the evil spirit from God comes to you, he'll strum a tune, and you'll feel better."
17
Saul told his officials, "Please find me a man who can play well and bring him to me."
18
One of the officials said, "I know one of Jesse's sons from Bethlehem who can play well. He's a courageous man and a warrior. He has a way with words, he is handsome, and the LORD is with him."
19
Saul sent messengers to Jesse to say, "Send me your son David, who is with the sheep."
