1 Samuel 18:5-9

The Voice

⁵ David went wherever Saul sent him and was successful in battle; and as a result, Saul made him commander of his army. And all the people, even those who served Saul, were pleased.

⁶ On the day they were returning from David’s victory over the Philistine, the women came out from all the cities of Israel to meet the king, singing and dancing with tambourines and other instruments, making joyful music. ⁷ At one point, the women sang as they danced and celebrated.

⁸ This chant made Saul tremble with fury.

⁹ From that moment on, Saul was suspicious of David.
