1 Samuel 16:17-19

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ And Saul said to his servants: Provide me then some man that can play well, and bring him to me.

¹⁸ And one of the servants answering, said: Behold I have seen a son of Isai the Bethlehemite, a skillful player, and one of great strength, and a man fit for war, and prudent in his words, and a comely person: and the Lord is with him.

¹⁹ Then Saul sent messengers to Isai, saying: Send me David thy son, who is in the pastures.
