And from that day Saul was looking with envy on David.

וַיְהִ֥י (וַ) va “and”

Now on the day after, an evil spirit from God came on Saul with great force and he was acting like a prophet among the men of his house, while David was making music for him, as he did day by day: and Saul had his spear in his hand.

וַיְהִ֣י (וַ) va “and”וַתִּצְלַ֣ח (וַ) va. “and”וַיִּתְנַבֵּ֣א (וַ) va “and”

And Saul, balancing the spear in his hand, said, I will give David a blow, pinning him to the wall. And David got away from him twice.

And Saul went in fear of David, because the Lord was with David and had gone away from Saul.

And in all his undertakings David did wisely; and the Lord was with him.

וַיְהִ֥י (וַ) va “and”

And when Saul saw how wisely he did, he was in fear of him.

And Saul said to David, Here is my oldest daughter Merab, whom I will give you for your wife: only be strong for me, fighting in the Lord's wars. For Saul said, Let it not be through me that his fate comes to him, but through the Philistines.

וַיֹּ֨אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

And David said to Saul, Who am I, and what is my father's family in Israel, that I am to be son-in-law to the king?

And Saul said, I will give her to him, so that she may be a cause of danger to him, and so that the hands of the Philistines may be against him. So Saul said to David, Today you are to become my son-in-law for the second time.

וַיֹּ֨אמֶר (וַ) va “and”וַיֹּ֤אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

And Saul gave his servants orders saying, Have talk with David secretly and say to him, See how the king has delight in you, and how you are loved by all his servants: then be the king's son-in-law.

וַיְצַ֨ו (וַ) va “and”

And Saul's servants said these things to David. And David said, Does it seem to you a small thing to be the king's son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man, of no great name?

וַֽיְדַבְּר֞וּ (וַֽ) va “and”וַיֹּ֣אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

And the servants of Saul gave him an account of what David had said.

וַיַּגִּ֜דוּ (וַ) va “and”

And Saul said, Then say to David, The king has no desire for any bride-price, but only for the private parts of a hundred Philistines so that the king may get the better of his haters. But it was in Saul's mind that David might come to his end by the han

And Saul's fear of David became all the greater, and he went on hating him, day by day.

וַיֹּ֣אסֶף (וַ) va “and”וַיְהִ֥י (וַ) va “and”

Then the rulers of the Philistines went out to war: and whenever they went out, David did more wisely than all the other servants of Saul, so that his name became greatly honoured.

And Saul gave orders to his son Jonathan and to all his servants to put David to death. But Saul's son Jonathan had great delight in David.
