09:019:003 And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field
           where thou art, and I will commune with my father of thee; and
           what I see, that I will tell thee.

09:019:004 And Jonathan spake good of David unto Saul his father, and
           said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant,
           against David; because he hath not sinned against thee, and
           because his works have been to thee-ward very good: 

09:019:005 For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine,
           and the lord wrought a great salvation for all Israel:  thou
           sawest it, and didst rejoice:  wherefore then wilt thou sin
           against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?

09:019:006 And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan:  and Saul sware,
           As the lord liveth, he shall not be slain.

09:019:007 And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan shewed him all those
           things.  And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his
           presence, as in times past.

09:019:008 And there was war again:  and David went out, and fought with
           the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter; and
           they fled from him.

09:019:009 And the evil spirit from the lord was upon Saul, as he sat in
           his house with his javelin in his hand:  and David played with
           his hand.

09:019:010 And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the
           javelin:  but he slipped away out of Saul’s presence, and he
           smote the javelin into the wall:  and David fled, and escaped
           that night.

09:019:011 Saul also sent messengers unto David’s house, to watch him,
           and to slay him in the morning:  and Michal David’s wife told
           him, saying, If thou save not thy life to night, to morrow
           thou shalt be slain.

09:019:012 So Michal let David down through a window:  and he went, and
           fled, and escaped.

09:019:013 And Michal took an image, and laid it in the bed, and put a
           pillow of goats’ hair for his bolster, and covered it with a
           cloth.

09:019:014 And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is
           sick.

09:019:015 And Saul sent the messengers again to see David, saying, Bring
           him up to me in the bed, that I may slay him.

09:019:016 And when the messengers were come in, behold, there was an
           image in the bed, with a pillow of goats’ hair for his
           bolster.

09:019:017 And Saul said unto Michal, Why hast thou deceived me so, and
           sent away mine enemy, that he is escaped?  And Michal answered
           Saul, He said unto me, Let me go; why should I kill thee?
