2 Samuel 6:20-23

20But when DavidH1732 returnedH7725 to blessH1288 his own householdH1004, MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 cameH3318 outH3318 to meetH7122 DavidH1732 and saidH559, “HowH4100 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 dignifiedH3513 himself todayH3117! For 1he exposedH1540 himself todayH3117 in the sightH5869 of his servants’H5650 femaleH519 slavesH519, as oneH259 of the 2rabbleH7386 shamelesslyH1540 exposesH1540 himself!”

21But DavidH1732 saidH559 to MichalH4324, “3I was beforeH6440 the LordH3068, whoH834 preferredH977 me to your fatherH1 and to allH3605 his houseH1004, to appointH6680 me as rulerH5057 overH5921 the peopleH5971 of the LordH3068, overH5921 IsraelH3478. So I will 4celebrateH7832 beforeH6440 the LordH3068!

22And I might demeanH7043 myself even moreH5750 thanH4480 thisH2088 and be lowlyH8217 in my own sightH5869, but with the femaleH519 slavesH519 of whomH834 you have spokenH559, with them I am to be heldH3513 inH3513 honorH3513!”

23And MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 hadH1961 noH3808 childH3206 to the dayH3117 of her deathH4194.
