Col tempo, però, Saul si allontanò da Dio finendo per compiere diversi atti di empietà. Allora Samuele, su ordine del Signore, consacrò re, un umile pastore: David. Questi fu chiamato alla corte di Saul per placare con il suo canto l’animo del re, e lì riuscì ad ottenere l’amicizia di Gionata, figlio del re, e la mano della giovane figlia di Saul, Micol. David generò però una forte invidia nel re, che vide in lui un usurpatore e al tempo stesso vi vide la propria passata giovinezza. David venne perseguitato da Saul e costretto a rifugiarsi in terre dei filistei (e per questo accusato di tradimento). La vicenda del Saul narra le ultime ore di vita del re e vede il ritorno di David, che da prode guerriero è accorso in aiuto del suo popolo, pur sapendo bene il rischio che ciò poteva comportare per la sua vita. David è pronto a farsi uccidere dal re, ma prima vuole potere combattere con il suo popolo. Saul vedendolo lo vuole uccidere, ma dopo averlo ascoltato si convince a dargli il comando dell’esercito. David ad un certo punto commette però un errore, parlando di “due agnelli” in Israele, e ciò genera il delirio omicida di Saul verso il giovane. Saul poi spiega a Gionata la dura legge del trono, per la quale “il fratello uccide il fratello”. Davanti al re arriva il sacerdote Achimelech, che porta a Gionata la condanna divina e lo mette al corrente dell’avvenuta incoronazione di David. Il re fa uccidere il sacerdote, e da lì egli andrà sempre più verso il delirio. Nell’ultimo atto, Saul prevede in un incubo la propria morte e quella dei suoi figli e con una visione piena di sangue si ridesta, e coglie la realtà dei fatti: i Filistei li stanno attaccando, e l’esercito israelita non riesce a difendersi. A questo punto Saul ritrova sé stesso, e uccidendosi riconquista l'integrità di uomo e di re. English:Saul, a brave warrior, was crowned king of Israel at the request of the people and consecrated by the priest Samuel, who anointed him in the name of God. In time, however, Saul turned away from God ending up performing various acts of impiety. Then Samuel, on the order of the Lord, consecrated king, a humble shepherd: David. The latter was called to the court of Saul to appease the soul of the king with his song, and there he managed to obtain the friendship of Jonathan, son of the king, and the hand of Saul's young daughter, Micol. David, however, generated a strong envy in the king, who saw in him a usurper and at the same time saw his own past youth. David was persecuted by Saul and forced to take refuge in the lands of the Philistines (and therefore accused of treason). The story of Saul narrates the last hours of the king's life and sees the return of David, who as a brave warrior has rushed to the aid of his people, even though he knows well the risk that this could entail for his life. David is ready to be killed by the king, but first he wants to be able to fight with his people. Saul wants to kill him after seeing him, but after listening to him, he convinces himself to give him command of the army. David at a certain point, however, makes a mistake, speaking of "two lambs" in Israel, and this generates Saul's murderous delirium towards the young man. Saul then explains to Jonathan the harsh law of the throne, for which "the brother kills the brother". The priest Achimelech arrives in front of the king, who brings the divine condemnation to Jonathan and informs him of David's coronation. The king has the priest killed, and from there he will go increasingly to delirium. In the last act, Saul predicts his own death and that of his children in a nightmare and with a vision full of blood he awakens, and captures the reality of the facts: the Philistines are attacking them, and the Israelite army is unable to defend itself . At this point Saul finds himself, and by killing himself he regains the integrity of man and king.
