1 SAMUEL CHAPTER 19 Saul purposeth to kill David; Jonathan discloseth it; speaketh in his behalf to Saul, who sweareth not to kill him; he returneth to court, 1 Samuel 19:1-7. By reason of his success in a new war, Saul again seeketh to kill him; Michal acquainteth him with it; he flieth; she deceiveth her father, 1 Samuel 19:8-17. David cometh to Samuel at Ramah; Saul sendeth messengers twice to apprehend him; they both prophesy, 1 Samuel 19:18-21. He goeth himself thither, and prophesieth likewise, 1 Samuel 19:22-24. Saul spake to Jonathan; whom, though lately engaged in a league of friendship with David, he thought to oblige to it by sense of his own interest, as being the next heir of the crown, and likely to suffer most by David's advancement. And to all his servants: what before he secretly designed, now he openly and impudently avowed.
