11 Sha’ul [desired] also sent messengers unto David’s [beloved]’s house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Mikhal [who is like God?] David’s [beloved]’s wife told him, saying, If youi save not youi life tonight, tomorrow youi shall be slain.
12 So Mikhal [who is like God?] let David [beloved] down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
13 And Mikhal [who is like God?] took an image, and laid [it] in the bed, and put a pillow of goats’ [hair] for his bolster (pillow; head - or other - support), and covered [it] with a cloth.
14 And when Sha’ul [desired] sent messengers to take David [beloved], she said, He [is] sick.
15 And Sha’ul [desired] sent the messengers [again] to see David [beloved], saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may slay him.
16 And when the messengers were come in, behold, [there was] an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats’ [hair] for his bolster (pillow; head - or other - support).
17 And Sha’ul [desired] said unto Mikhal [who is like God?], Why have youi deceived me so, and sent away my enemy, that he is escaped? And Mikhal [who is like God?] answered Sha’ul [desired], He said unto me, Let me go; why should I kill youi?
18 So David [beloved] fled, and escaped, and came to Sh’mu’el [His name is El] to Ramah [Hill], and told him all that Sha’ul [desired] had done to him. And he and Sh’mu’el [His name is El] went and dwelt in Nayot [the prophet’s dormitory].
