¹⁵ Now David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem.

¹¹ Samuel said to Jesse, Are here all your children? He said, There remains yet the youngest, and, behold, he is keeping the sheep. Samuel said to Jesse, Send and get him; for we will not sit down until he come here.

¹⁹ Therefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, Send me David your son, who is with the sheep.

²⁰ Jesse took a donkey loaded with bread, and a bottle of wine, and a kid, and sent them by David his son to Saul.

²¹ David came to Saul, and stood before him: and he loved him greatly; and he became his armor bearer.

²² Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Please let David stand before me; for he has found favor in my sight.

²³ It happened, when the [evil] spirit from God was on Saul, that David took the harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.
