Saul had given his daughter Michal, David’s wife, to Palti, Laish’s son, who was from Gallim.
Then David sent messengers to Saul’s son Ishbosheth to say, “Give me my wife Michal. I made a payment of 100 Philistine foreskins for her.”
So Ishbosheth sent men to take her from her husband Paltiel, son of Laish.
Cry aloud, you people in Gallim! Pay attention, you people in Laishah and miserable Anathoth!
However, Saul’s daughter Michal fell in love with David. When Saul was told about it, the news pleased him.
David and his men went out and struck down 200 Philistines. David brought the foreskins, and they counted them out for the king so that David could become the king’s son-in-law. Then Saul gave him his daughter Michal as his wife.
