1 Samuel 16:14 in Context — 1 Samuel 16
12 Isaï l’envoya chercher. Or il était blond, avec de beaux yeux et une belle figure. L’Éternel dit à Samuel: Lève-toi, oins-le, car c’est lui!
13 Samuel prit la corne d’huile, et l’oignit au milieu de ses frères. L’esprit de l’Éternel saisit David, à partir de ce jour et dans la suite. Samuel se leva, et s’en alla à Rama.
14 L’esprit de l’Éternel se retira de Saül, qui fut agité par un mauvais esprit venant de l’Éternel.
15 Les serviteurs de Saül lui dirent: Voici, un mauvais esprit de Dieu t’agite.
16 Que notre seigneur parle! Tes serviteurs sont devant toi. Ils chercheront un homme qui sache jouer de la harpe; et, quand le mauvais esprit de Dieu sera sur toi, il jouera de sa main, et tu seras soulagé.
