13And he saidH559, “GoodH2896! I will makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with you, onlyH389 I requireH7592 oneH259 thingH1697 of you, 1namelyH559, that 2you shall not seeH7200 my faceH6440 unlessH3588H518 you 3firstH6440 bringH935 MichalH4324, Saul’sH7586 daughterH1323, when you comeH935 to seeH7200 4me.” 14So DavidH1732 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to Ish-boshethH378, Saul’sH7586 sonH1121, sayingH559, “GiveH5414 me my wifeH802 MichalH4324, to whomH834 I was betrothedH781 5for a hundredH3967 foreskinsH6190 of the PhilistinesH6430.” 15Ish-boshethH378 sentH7971 men and 6had her takenH3947 from her husbandH376, from 7PaltielH6409 the sonH1121 of LaishH3919. 16And her husbandH376 wentH1980 with her, weepingH1058 as he wentH1980, 8followingH310 her as farH5704 as 9BahurimH980.
