PSALM LXXXI.

And Saul's servants said unto him, Behold now, an evil

spirit from God troubleth thee. Let our Lord now command thy

servants, which are before thee, to seek out a man who is a

cunning player on a harp; and it shall come to pass, when

the evil spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play

with his hand, and thou shalt be well. And Saul said unto

his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and

bring him to me. Then answered one of his servants, and

said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite,

that is cunning in playing, and a comely person. Wherefore

Saul sent messengers unto Jesse, and said, Send me David thy

son. And David came to Saul, and stood before him; and it

came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul,

that David took a harp, and played with his hand. So Saul

was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed

from him.
