1 Samuel 19:12-18

12So MichalH4324 letH3381 DavidH1732 downH3381 through a windowH2474: and he wentH3212, and fledH1272, and escapedH4422. 13And MichalH4324 tookH3947 an imageH8655, and laidH7760 it in the bedH4296, and putH7760 a pillowH3523 of goats’H5795 hair for his headH4763, and coveredH3680 it with a clothH899.1 14And when SaulH7586 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to takeH3947 DavidH1732, she saidH559, He is sickH2470. 15And SaulH7586 sentH7971 the messengersH4397 again to seeH7200 DavidH1732, sayingH559, Bring him upH5927 to me in the bedH4296, that I may slayH4191 him. 16And when the messengersH4397 were come inH935, behold, there was an imageH8655 in the bedH4296, with a pillowH3523 of goats’H5795 hair for his headH4763. 17And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto MichalH4324, Why hast thou deceived me soH7411, and sent awayH7971 mine enemyH341, that he is escapedH4422? And MichalH4324 answeredH559 SaulH7586, He saidH559 unto me, Let me goH7971; why should I killH4191 thee?

18So DavidH1732 fledH1272, and escapedH4422, and cameH935 to SamuelH8050 to RamahH7414, and toldH5046 him all that SaulH7586 had doneH6213 to him. And he and SamuelH8050 wentH3212 and dweltH3427 in NaiothH5121.
