1 Samuel 16:14

Context
David Appears before Saul

16:14 Now the Spirit of the Lord had turned away from Saul, and an evil spirit 2  from the Lord tormented him.

1 tn Heb “Eli.” The pronoun (“he”) has been used in the translation in keeping with contemporary English style.

2 tn Or “an injurious spirit”; cf. NLT “a tormenting spirit.” The phrase need not refer to an evil, demonic spirit. The Hebrew word translated “evil” may refer to the character of the spirit or to its effect upon Saul. If the latter, another translation option might be “a mischief-making spirit.”
