1 Samuel 18:18-23

18But David said to Saul, “1Who am I, and who is my family, or my father’s family in Israel, that I should be the king’s son-in-law?” 19So it came about at the time that Merab, Saul’s daughter, was to be given to David, that she was given instead to 2Adriel 3the Meholathite as a wife.

20Now 4Michal, Saul’s daughter, loved David. When they informed Saul, the thing was pleasing 5to him. 21For Saul thought, “I will give her to him so that she may become a trap for him, and 6that the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” Therefore Saul said to David, “7For a second time you may become my son-in-law, today.” 22Then Saul commanded his servants, “Speak to David in secret, saying, ‘Behold, the king delights in you, and all his servants love you; now then, become the king’s son-in-law.’” 23So Saul’s servants spoke these words 8to David. But David said, “Is it trivial in your sight to become the king’s son-in-law, 9since I am only a poor man and insignificant?”
