SCRIPTURE

"Then Saul said to David, Blessed be thou, my son David: thou shalt both do mightily, and shalt surely prevail. So David went his way, and Saul returned to his place." — 1 Samuel 26:25 (ASV)

You shall both do great things. —“Saul is here again ‘among the prophets,’ and foretells David’s exaltation and victory. ‘Vicisti Nazarene!’ was the exclamation of Julian.”— Bishop Wordsworth.
