“And Saul cast the javelin; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall with it. And David avoided out of his presence twice.”
Then Saul became exceedingly angry, and this word was displeasing in his eyes. And he said: “They have given David ten thousand, and to me they gave only one thousand. What is left for him, except the kingdom itself?”
Therefore, Saul did not regard David with a good eye, from that day and thereafter.
Then, on the next day, the evil spirit from God assailed Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of his house. And David played with his hand, just as at every other time. And Saul held a lance in his hand.

And Saul feared David, because the Lord was with him, but he had withdrawn from Saul.

Also, David acted prudently in all his ways, and the Lord was with him.
