15Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him.
16When the messengers came in, behold, the teraphim was in the bed, with the pillow of goats` [hair] at the head of it.
17Saul said to Michal, Why have you deceived me thus, and let my enemy go, so that he is escaped? Michal answered Saul, He said to me, Let me go; why should I kill you?
18Now David fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. He and Samuel went and lived in Naioth.
19It was told Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.
20Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, the Spirit of God came on the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.
21When it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
