So all the people departed, each to his own house.20Then David returned to bless his household. Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, “How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of his servants’ maids, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!”21David said to Michal, “It was before the LORD, who chose me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel. Therefore I will celebrate before the LORD.22I will be yet more undignified than this, and will be worthless in my own sight. But the maids of whom you have spoken will honor me.”23Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.Previous chapterNext chapter
