1 Samuel 18:17-19
17Then SaulH7586 saidH559 to DavidH1732, “1HereH2009 is my olderH1419 daughterH1323 MerabH4764; I will giveH5414 her to you as a wifeH802, onlyH389 be a valiantH2428 manH1121 for me and fightH3898 2the Lord’sH3068 battlesH4421.” For SaulH7586 thoughtH559, “My handH3027 shall not be against him, but 3let the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430 be against him.” 18But DavidH1732 saidH559 to SaulH7586, “4WhoH4310 am I, and whoH4310 is my familyH2416, or my father’sH1 familyH4940 in IsraelH3478, that I should be the king’sH4428 son-in-lawH2860?” 19So it cameH1961 aboutH1961 at the timeH6256 that MerabH4764, Saul’sH7586 daughterH1323, was to be givenH5414 to DavidH1732, that she was givenH5414 instead to 5AdrielH5741 6the MeholathiteH4259 as a wifeH802.
