1 Samuel 18:26-28

New International Reader's Version

²⁶ Saul’s attendants also told David those things. Then David was pleased to become the king’s son-in-law. So before the wedding day, ²⁷ David and his men went out and killed 200 Philistines. They circumcised the Philistines. Then David brought back all the skins. They counted out the full number and gave them to the king. By doing that, David could become the king’s son-in-law. So Saul gave David his daughter Michal to be his wife.

²⁸ Saul realized that the Lord was with David. He also realized that his daughter Michal loved David.
