1 Samuel 18:17-18
17And Saul said to David, Behold my elder daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife: only be thou valiant for me, and fight Yhwh's battles. For Saul said, Let not mine hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.1 18And David said unto Saul, Who am I? and what is my life, or my father’s family in Israel, that I should be son in law to the king?
