New American Standard Bible
Chapter 16
19
So Saul sent messengers to Jesse to say, 'Send me your son David, who is with the flock.'
20
And Jesse took a donkey
loaded with
bread and a jug of wine, and
he took
a young goat, and sent
them
to Saul by his son David.
21
Then David came to Saul and attended him; and
Saul
greatly loved him, and he became his armor bearer.
22
So Saul sent
word
to Jesse, saying, 'Let David now be my attendant for he has found favor in my sight.'
23
So it came about whenever the
evil
spirit from God came to Saul, David would take the harp and play
it
with his hand; and Saul would feel relieved and become well, and the evil spirit would leave him.
King James Version

And David came to Saul, and stood before him: and he loved him greatly; and he became his armourbearer.
22
And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Let David, I pray thee, stand before me; for he hath found favour in my sight.
23
And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.
