Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.
Then David sent messengers to Ish-bosheth, Saul's son, saying, “Give me my wife Michal, for whom I paid the bridal price of a hundred foreskins of the Philistines.”
David arose and went, along with his men, and killed two hundred of the Philistines. And David brought their foreskins, which were given in full number to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him his daughter Michal for a wife.
Cry aloud, O daughter of Gallim! Give attention, O Laishah! O poor Anathoth!
Now Saul's daughter Michal loved David. And they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
