MSB(i)
11 Then Saul sent messengers to David’s house to watch him and kill him in the morning. But David’s wife Michal warned him, “If you do not run for your life tonight, tomorrow you will be dead!”
12 So Michal lowered David from the window, and he ran away and escaped.
13 Then Michal took a household idol and laid it in the bed, placed some goat hair on its head, and covered it with a garment.
14 When Saul sent the messengers to seize David, Michal said, “He is ill.”
15 But Saul sent the messengers back to see David and told them, “Bring him up to me in his bed so I can kill him.”
16 And when the messengers entered, there was the idol in the bed with the quilt of goats’ hair on its head.
17 And Saul said to Michal, “Why did you deceive me like this? You sent my enemy away and he has escaped!” Michal replied, “He said to me, ‘Help me get away, or I will kill you!’”
