Michal's Contempt for David
16 And when the ark of our Lord was entered into the city of David, Michol the daughter of Saul looking forth through a window, saw king David leaping, & dancing before our Lord: and she despised him in her heart.📜💬📚
20 And David returned to bless his own house: and Michol the daughter of Saul coming forth to meet David, said: How glorious was the king of Israel to day uncovering himself before the handmaids of his servants, and was naked, as if one of the ribalds should be naked.📜💬📚
21 And David said unto Michol: Before our Lord, which hath chosen me rather than thy father, and than all his house, and commanded me that I should be duke over the people of our Lord in Israel,📜💬📚
22 both will I play, & will become more vile than I have been: and I will be humble in mine eyes, and with the handmaids, of whom thou speakest, I will appear more glorious.📜💬📚
23 Therefore unto Michol the daughter of Saul was there no child born unto the day of her death.📜💬📚
