1 Samuel 19:11-13

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹¹ Saul sent messengers to David’s house to keep watch over him, planning to kill him in the morning. David’s wife Michal told him, “If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed.” ¹² So Michal let David down through the window; he fled away and escaped. ¹³ Michal took an idol^[a] and laid it on the bed; she put a net^[b] of goats’ hair on its head, and covered it with the clothes.
