1 Samuel 19:13-17 ▼

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.”

16 And the messengers come in, and behold, the teraphim [are] on the bed, and the mattress of goats’ [hair for] his pillows.

17 And Saul says to Michal, “Why have you thus deceived me—that you send my enemy away, and he escapes?” And Michal says to Saul, “He said to me, Send me away. Why do I put you to death?”
