13“GoodH2896,” replied DavidH559, “IH589 will makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with youH854. ButH389 there is oneH259 thingH1697 IH595 requireH7592 of youH854H559: Do notH3808 appearH7200 before meH6440 unlessH518H6440 you bringH935 Saul’sH7586 daughterH1323 MichalH4324 when you comeH935 to see meH7200.”
14Then DavidH1732 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to sayH559 toH413 Ish-boshethH378 sonH1121 of SaulH7586, “GiveH5414 meH853 back my wifeH802, MichalH4324, whomH834 I betrothedH781 to myself for a hundredH3967 PhilistineH6430 foreskinsH6190.”
15So Ish-boshethH378 sentH7971 and tookH3947 Michal fromH5973 her husbandH376H5973 PaltielH64091 sonH1121 of LaishH3889. 16Her husbandH376H1980 followedH1980H854 herH310, weepingH1058 all the way toH5704 BahurimH980. Then AbnerH74H1980 saidH559 to himH413, “Go backH7725.” So he returnedH7725 home.
