    12Saul was afraid of David, because Yahweh was with him, and was departed from Saul.

    18David said to 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?

    23Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. David said, Seems it to you a light thing to be the king's son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?

    24The servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner spoke David.

    25Saul said, Thus shall you tell David, The king desires no dowry except one hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.

    26When his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son-in-law. The days were not expired;

    27and David arose and went, he and his men, and killed of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. Saul gave him Michal his daughter as wife.
