1 Samuel 18:18-23

And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Saul
<07586>_,
Who [am] I? and what [is] my life
<02416>_,
[or] my father's
<01>
family
<04940>
in Israel
<03478>_,
that I should be son in law
<02860>
to the king
<04428>_?
But it came to pass at the time
<06256>
when Merab
<04764>
Saul's
<07586>
daughter
<01323>
should have been given
<05414> (8800)
to David
<01732>_,
that she was given
<05414> (8738)
unto Adriel
<05741>
the Meholathite
<04259>
to wife
<0802>_.
And Michal
<04324>
Saul's
<07586>
daughter
<01323>
loved
<0157> (8799)
David
<01732>_:
and they told
<05046> (8686)
Saul
<07586>_,
and the thing
<01697>
pleased
<03474> (8799) <05869>
him. {pleased him: Heb. was right in his eyes}
And Saul
<07586>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
I will give
<05414> (8799)
him her, that she may be a snare
<04170>
to him, and that the hand
<03027>
of the Philistines
<06430>
may be against him. Wherefore Saul
<07586>
said
<0559> (8799)
to David
<01732>_,
Thou shalt this day
<03117>
be my son in law
<02859> (8691)
in [the one of] the twain
<08147>_.
And Saul
<07586>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
his servants
<05650>_,
[saying], Commune
<01696> (8761)
with David
<01732>
secretly
<03909>_,
and say
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, the king
<04428>
hath delight
<02654> (8804)
in thee, and all his servants
<05650>
love
<0157> (8804)
thee: now therefore be the king's
<04428>
son in law
<02859> (8690)_.
And Saul's
<07586>
servants
<05650>
spake
<01696> (8762)
those words
<01697>
in the ears
<0241>
of David
<01732>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Seemeth
<05869>
it to you [a] light
<07043> (8738)
[thing] to be a king's
<04428>
son in law
<02859> (8692)_,
seeing that I [am] a poor
<07326> (8802)
man
<0376>_,
and lightly esteemed
<07034> (8737)_?
