Contextual Overview
14 But the spirite of the Lorde departed from Saul, and an euill spirite [sent] of the Lord vexed him. 15 And Sauls seruauntes said vnto him: Beholde, an euill spirite [sent] of God vexeth thee. 16 Let our Lorde therefore commaunde thy seruauntes (that are before thee) to seeke a man that is a cunnyng player with an harpe: that when the euill spirite of God commeth vpon thee, he may play with his hande, & thou shalt be eased. 17 Saul sayd vnto his seruauntes: Prouide me a man then that can play well, and bring him to me. 18 The aunswered one of his seruauntes and said: Beholde, I haue seene a sonne of Isai the Bethlehemite, that can play vpon instrumentes, and is strong, valiaunt, and a man of warre, and prudent in doing of feates, and well made, and the Lorde is with him. 19 Wherefore Saul sent messengers vnto Isai, and said: Sende me Dauid thy sonne, which is with the sheepe. 20 And Isai tooke an asse [laden] with bread, and a flacket of wine, and a kyd, and sent them by Dauid his sonne vnto Saul. 21 And Dauid came to Saul, and stoode before him, and he loued him very well, & he was made his harnesse bearer. 22 And Saul sent to Isai, saying: Let Dauid nowe remaine with me, for he hath founde fauour in my sight. 23 And so when the [euill] spirite of God came vpon Saul, Dauid toke an harpe and played with his hand: and so Saul was refreshed, & did amende, and the euyll spirite departed from him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Saul said unto his servants,.... Approving of, and pleased with the advice they gave:
provide me now a man that can play well, and bring him to me; for being a sovereign prince, he could command whom he would to attend to his person and service.
