1 Samuel 16:17-19

International Standard Version

¹⁷ Saul told his servants, “Find^[a] a man for me who can play well and bring him to me.”

¹⁸ One of the young men answered: “Look, I’ve seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite who is skilled in playing. The man is a valiant soldier, gifted in speech, and handsome. And the Lord is with him.”

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