Tells about Samuel, the last judge, and the beginning of Israel's monarchy with King Saul and young David.

Chapter 19

KJV - 1 Samuel 19:5

For he did put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great salvation for all Israel: thou sawest it, and didst rejoice: wherefore then wilt thou sin against innocent blood, to slay David without a cause?

He risked his life to kill the Philistine and God saved everyone. You saw this and were happy. So why would you let someone wrongly kill David, who is innocent?
