1 Samuel 19:15

New King James Version

Then Saul sent the messengers back to see David, saying, “Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him.”

See the chapter Copy

“Their feet are swift to shed blood;

The wicked plots against the just, And gnashes at him with his teeth.

If the men of my tent have not said, ‘Who is there that has not been satisfied with his meat?’

So Saul heeded the voice of Jonathan, and Saul swore, “As the Lord lives, he shall not be killed.”

So when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, “He is sick.”

And when the messengers had come in, there was the image in the bed, with a cover of goats’ hair for his head.
