018:028 Saul saw and knew that Yahweh was with David; and Michal, Saul's daughter, loved him. 018:029 Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul was David's enemy continually. 018:030 Then the princes of the Philistines went forth: and it happened, as often as they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was much set by. 019:001 Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Jonathan, Saul's son, delighted much in David. 019:002 Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeks to kill you: now therefore, please take care of yourself in the morning, and live in a secret place, and hide yourself: 019:003 and I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will commune with my father of you; and if I see anything, I will tell you. 019:004 Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, Don't let the king sin against his servant, against David; because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you: 019:005 for he put his life in his hand, and struck the Philistine, and Yahweh worked a great victory for all Israel: you saw it, and did rejoice; why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause? 019:006 Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan: and Saul swore, As Yahweh lives, he shall not be put to death. 019:007 Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as before. 019:008 There was war again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and killed them with a great slaughter; and they fled before him. 019:009 An evil spirit from Yahweh was on Saul, as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing with his hand. 019:010 Saul sought to strike David even to the wall with the spear; but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he struck the spear into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night. 019:011 Saul sent messengers to David's house, to watch him, and to kill him in the morning: and Michal, David's wife, told him, saying, If you don't save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be slain. 019:012 So Michal let David down through the window: and he went, and fled, and escaped. 019:013 Michal took the teraphim, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats' [hair] at the head of it, and covered it with the clothes. 019:014 When Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick. 019:015 Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him.
