Ish Bosheth was Saul’s son. Ish Bosheth was 40 years old when he began to rule over Israel. He ruled two years. But the family group of Judah followed David.
Then Ish Bosheth told the men to go and take Michal from a man named Paltiel son of Laish.
Saul’s daughter Michal was looking out the window. While the Lord’s Holy Box was being carried into the city, David was jumping and dancing before the Lord. Michal saw this, and she was upset at David. {She thought he was making a fool of himself.}
The mother of Jesus Christ was Mary. And this is how the birth of Jesus happened. Mary was engaged to marry Joseph. But before they married, Mary learned that she was pregnant with a child. Mary was pregnant by \{the power of\} the Holy Spirit. {\cf2\super [10]}
Saul told them, “Say this to David, ‘David, the king doesn’t want you to pay money for his daughter! [167] Saul wants to get even with his enemy. So the price for marrying his daughter is 100 Philistine foreskins.’” That was Saul’s secret plan. Saul thought the Philistines would kill David.
David and his men went out to fight the Philistines. They killed 200 [168] Philistines. David took these Philistine foreskins and gave them to Saul. David did this because he wanted to become the king’s son-in-law.
David was also married to Saul’s daughter Michal. But Saul had taken her away from him and had given her to a man named Palti, son of Laish. Palti was from the town named Gallim.
