49 The sons of Saul were Jonʹa·than, Ishʹvi, and Malʹchi-shuʹa.+ And he had two daughters; the name of the older one was Meʹrab,+ and the name of the younger one, Miʹchal.+

11 Saul later sent messengers to David’s house to watch it and to kill him in the morning,+ but David’s wife Miʹchal told him: “If you do not escape* tonight, tomorrow you will be a dead man.”

44 But Saul had given his daughter Miʹchal,+ David’s wife, to Palʹti+ the son of Laʹish, who was from Galʹlim.

13 To this he replied: “Good! I will make a covenant with you. The only thing I ask of you is that you do not try to see my face unless first you bring Miʹchal,+ Saul’s daughter, when you come to see me.”

16 But when the Ark of Jehovah came into the City of David, Saul’s daughter Miʹchal+ looked down through the window and saw King David leaping and dancing around before Jehovah; and she began to despise him in her heart.+
