1 Samuel 18:9

⁷  And the women answered one another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.

⁸  And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he said, They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands: and what can he have more but the kingdom?

⁹  And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.

¹⁰  And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and there was a javelin in Saul's hand.

¹¹  And Saul cast the javelin; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall with it. And David avoided out of his presence twice.
