Saul Turns against David
10 Now it came about on the next day that (A)an evil spirit from God rushed upon Saul, and (B)he raved in the midst of the house while David was playing the harp with his hand, [a](C)as usual; and [b](D)a spear was in Saul’s hand. 11 Then (E)Saul hurled the spear, for he thought, “I will [c]pin David to the wall.” But David [d]escaped from his presence, twice.
12 Now (F)Saul was afraid of David, (G)because the Lord was with him but (H)had left Saul.

American Standard Version
10 And it came to pass on the morrow, that an evil spirit from God came mightily upon Saul, and he [a]prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as he did day by day. And Saul had his spear in his hand; 11 and Saul cast the spear; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall. And David avoided out of his presence twice. 12 And Saul was afraid of David, because Jehovah was with him, and was departed from Saul.
