15 Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him.
Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan: and Saul swore, As Yahweh lives, he shall not be put to death.
If the men of my tent have not said, 'Who can find one who has not been filled with his meat?'
A stone is heavy, And sand is a burden; But a fool's provocation is heavier than both. Wrath is cruel, And anger is overwhelming; But who is able to stand before jealousy?

Commentary on 1 Samuel 19 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 19
Immediately after David's marriage, which one would have hoped would secure him Saul's affection, we find his troubles coming upon him faster than ever and Saul's enmity to him the cause of all. His death was vowed, and four fair escapes of his from the hurtful sword of Saul we have an account of in this chapter:
Thus God has many ways of preserving his people. Providence is never at a loss.
