1 Samuel 19:15-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁵ The men went and told Saul, but he sent them back to see David. He told them, “Bring him to me on his bed so I can kill him.”

¹⁶ But when the messengers entered David’s house, they found it was just an idol on the bed. Its hair was goats’ hair.

¹⁷ Saul said to Michal, “Why did you trick me this way? You let my enemy go. He has run away!”

Michal answered Saul, “David told me if I did not help him escape, he would kill me.”
