Description Image My notes

1 David lived in the palace

with Saul the king. He
played music and he
would sing praises to
God.

2 Jonathan, king Saul’s

son, became David’s
best friend. They
worked, prayed, and had
fun. They worshipped
God in all they did.

3 David was also a soldier

for King Saul and was
very successful in battle.
He had more victories
than Saul and became a
popular hero with the
people.
4 One day after battle, the
people sang, “Saul has
killed his thousands, but
David has killed his tens
of thousands.” Saul
became very angry and
jealous. He was afraid
the people would make
David their king.

5 Saul was so jealous and

angry he wanted David
dead. When David
began to sing for Saul,
the king picked up his
spear and flung it at
David. It missed and
David fled. With help
from Jonathan, David ran
away and went into
hiding.
