20 When David went home to pronounce a blessing on his own house, Michal, Saul's daughter, came out to meet him. She said, |How the king of Israel has distinguished himself this day! He has exposed himself today before his servants' slave girls the way a vulgar fool might do!|

21 David replied to Michal, |It was before the LORD! I was celebrating before the LORD, who chose me over your father and his entire family and appointed me as leader over the LORD's people Israel.

22 I am willing to shame and humiliate myself even more than this! But with the slave girls whom you mentioned let me be distinguished!|

23 Now Michal, Saul's daughter, had no children to the day of her death.
