13 Then Michal took some idols, laid them in the bed, put a goat-hair blanket at its head, and covered the idols with a garment. 14 When Saul sent messengers to get David, Michal said, |He's sick.| 15 Then Saul sent the messengers back to see David themselves. Saul told them, |Bring him here to me in his bed so that I can kill him.| 16 The messengers came, and there in the bed were the idols with the goat-hair blanket at its head. 17 Saul asked Michal, |Why did you betray me by sending my enemy away so that he could escape?| Michal answered, |He told me, 'Let me go! Why should I kill you?'| 1 Samuel 19:13-17, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
