2 Samuel 6:20-22

Lexham English Bible

²⁰ When David returned to bless his household, Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David. She said, “How the king of Israel honored himself today by uncovering himself^[a] before the eyes of the maids of his servants, as the total exposure of a worthless one.”^{[b] 21} So David said to Michal, “In the presence of Yahweh who chose me over^[c] your father and over^[d] his household, to appoint me as leader over the people of Yahweh, over Israel, I have celebrated before Yahweh. ²² I will demean myself again more than this, and I will be abased in my eyes, but with the maids whom you mentioned, with them I will be honored.”
