1 Samuel 19:11-15 ▼

11 And Saul sends messengers to the house of David to watch him, and to put him to death in the morning; and his wife Michal declares [it] to David, saying, “If you are not delivering your life tonight—tomorrow you are put to death.”

12 And Michal causes David to go down through the window, and he goes on, and flees, and escapes;

13 and Michal takes the teraphim, and lays [it] on the bed, and she has put the mattress of goats’ [hair for] his pillows, and covers [it] with a garment.

14 And Saul sends messengers to take David, and she says, “He [is] sick.”

15 And Saul sends the messengers to see David, saying, “Bring him up in the bed to me in order to put him to death.”
