In context

13So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and the Spirit of the LORD rushed upon David from that day forward. Then Samuel set out and went to Ramah.

14Now the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and a spirit of distress from the LORD began to torment him.

15Saul’s servants said to him, “Surely a spirit of distress from God is tormenting you.

16Let our lord command your servants here to seek out someone who can skillfully play the harp. Whenever the spirit of distress from God is upon you, he is to play it, and you will be well.”

17And Saul commanded his servants, “Find me someone who plays well, and bring him to me.”
