1 Samuel 18:5-7
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
5 David went out and was successful wherever Saul sent him; as a result, Saul set him over the army. And all the people, even the servants of Saul, approved.
6 As they were coming home, when David returned from killing the Philistine, the women came out of all the towns of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tambourines, with songs of joy, and with musical instruments.[a] 7 And the women sang to one another as they made merry,
‘Saul has killed his thousands,
and David his tens of thousands.’
