1 Samuel 18:20-22

Good News Translation

²⁰ Saul's daughter Michal, however, fell in love with David, and when Saul heard of this, he was pleased. ²¹ He said to himself, “I'll give Michal to David; I will use her to trap him, and he will be killed by the Philistines.” So for the second time Saul said to David, “You will be my son-in-law.” ²² He ordered his officials to speak privately with David and tell him, “The king is pleased with you and all his officials like you; now is a good time for you to marry his daughter.”
