Löydetty 1003 Tulokset: story of David

• and as they danced the women sang: Saul has killed his thousands, and David his tens of thousands. (1 Samuel 18, 7)

• Saul was very angry; the incident displeased him. 'They have given David the tens of thousands,' he said, 'but me only the thousands; what more can he have, except the throne?' (1 Samuel 18, 8)

• And Saul watched David jealously from that day onwards. (1 Samuel 18, 9)

• The following day, an evil spirit from God seized on Saul and he fell into a frenzy while he was indoors. David played the harp as on other occasions; Saul had a spear in his hand. (1 Samuel 18, 10)

• Saul brandished the spear; he said, 'I will pin David to the wall!' David evaded him twice. (1 Samuel 18, 11)

• Saul feared David, since Yahweh was with him and had withdrawn from Saul. (1 Samuel 18, 12)

• In all his expeditions, David was successful and Yahweh was with him. (1 Samuel 18, 14)

• All Israel and Judah loved David, however, since he was their leader on campaign. (1 Samuel 18, 16)

• Saul said to David, 'This is my elder daughter Merab; I shall give her to you in marriage; but you must serve me bravely and fight Yahweh's wars.' Saul thought, 'Better than strike the blow myself, let the Philistines do it!' (1 Samuel 18, 17)

• David replied to Saul, 'Who am I and what is my lineage -- and my father's family -- in Israel, for me to become the king's son-in-law?' (1 Samuel 18, 18)

• When the time came for Merab daughter of Saul to be given to David, she was given to Adriel of Meholah instead. (1 Samuel 18, 19)

• Now Michal daughter of Saul fell in love with David. When Saul heard this he was pleased. (1 Samuel 18, 20)
