1 Samuel 16:17-19

International Children’s Bible

¹⁷ So Saul said to his servants, “Find someone. If he plays well, bring him to me.”

¹⁸ One of the servants said, “Jesse of Bethlehem has a son who plays the harp. I have seen him play it. He is a brave man and fights well. He is a good speaker and handsome. And the Lord is with him.”

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