1 Samuel 18:12 in Context — 1 Samuel 18

10 Le lendemain, le mauvais esprit de Dieu saisit Saül, qui eut des transports au milieu de la maison. David jouait, comme les autres jours, et Saül avait sa lance à la main.

11 Saül leva sa lance, disant en lui-même: Je frapperai David contre la paroi. Mais David se détourna de lui deux fois.

12 Saül craignait la présence de David, parce que l’Éternel était avec David et s’était retiré de lui.

13 Il l’éloigna de sa personne, et il l’établit chef de mille hommes. David sortait et rentrait à la tête du peuple;

14 il réussissait dans toutes ses entreprises, et l’Éternel était avec lui.
