20 When David returned to bless his family, Saul's daughter Michal came out to meet him. |How dignified Israel's king was today! He was exposing himself before the eyes of the slave girls of his palace staff-like a mindless fool might expose himself!| 21 David answered Michal, |[I didn't dance in front of the slave girls but] in front of the LORD. He chose me rather than your father or anyone in your father's house, and he appointed me leader of Israel, the LORD's people. I will celebrate in the LORD's presence, 22 and I will degrade myself even more than this. Even if I am humiliated in your eyes, I will be honored by these slave girls you speak about.| 2 Samuel 6:20-22, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
