NSB(i)
19 Saul sent a message to Jesse: »Tell your son David to leave your sheep and come here to me.«
20 Jesse loaded a donkey with bread and a goatskin full of wine. He told David to take the donkey and a young goat to Saul.
21 David went to Saul and worked for him. Saul liked him so much that he put David in charge of carrying his weapons.
22 Not long after this, Saul sent another message to Jesse: »I really like David. Please let him stay with me.«
23 Whenever the distressing spirit from God bothered Saul, David would play his harp. Saul would relax and feel better. The distressing spirit would go away.
