19 When the time came for Merab, Saul's daughter, to be given to David, she instead was given in marriage to Adriel, who was from Meholah.

20 Now Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David. When they told Saul about this, it pleased him.

21 Saul said, |I will give her to him so that she may become a snare to him and the hand of the Philistines may be against him.| So Saul said to David, |Today is the second time for you to become my son-in-law.|
