1 Samuel 18:7-9

⁸ This song upset Saul and he became very angry. Saul thought, “The women give David credit for killing tens of thousands of the enemy, and they give me credit for only thousands. A little more of this and they will give him the kingdom itself!^[a]” ⁹ So from that time on, Saul watched David very closely.
