English Standard Version
1 Samuel 18:20-22
English Standard Version
20 Now (A)Saul's daughter Michal (B)loved David. And they told Saul, and the thing pleased him. 21 Saul thought, “Let me give her to him, that she may (C)be a snare for him (D)and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” Therefore Saul said to David a second time,[a] (E)“You shall now be my son-in-law.” 22 And Saul commanded his servants, “Speak to David in private and say, ‘Behold, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you. Now then become the king's son-in-law.’”

20 Now Saul’s daughter Michal(A) was in love with David, and when they told Saul about it, he was pleased.(B) 21 “I will give her to him,” he thought, “so that she may be a snare(C) to him and so that the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” So Saul said to David, “Now you have a second opportunity to become my son-in-law.”
22 Then Saul ordered his attendants: “Speak to David privately and say, ‘Look, the king likes you, and his attendants all love you; now become his son-in-law.’”
