1 Samuel 18:25-27

25And SaulH7586 saidH559, ThusH3541 shall ye sayH559 to DavidH1732, The kingH4428 desireth not any dowry, but a hundredH3967 foreskinsH6190 of the PhilistinesH6430, to be avengedH5358 of the king’sH4428 enemiesH341. Now SaulH7586 thought to make DavidH1732 fallH5307 by the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430. 26And when his servantsH5650 toldH5046 DavidH1732 these wordsH1697, it pleased DavidH1732 well to be the king’sH4428 son-in-law. And the daysH3117 were not expired; 27and DavidH1732 aroseH6965 and wentH935, he and his menH376, and slew of the PhilistinesH6430 two hundredH3967 menH376; and DavidH1732 broughtH935 their foreskinsH6190, and they gaveH5414 them in fullH4390 number to the kingH4428, that he might be the king’sH4428 son-in-law. And SaulH7586 gaveH5414 him MichalH4324 his daughterH1323 to wifeH802.
