7 ULB Ao som da música, essas mulhers cantavam e diziam umas às outras: "Saul matou seus milhares, mas Davi dez milhares". BSB BSB: And as the women danced, they sang out: “Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands.”
8 ULB Saul ficou extremamente furioso e esta melodia o incomodou. "Eles renderam a Davi dez milhares, mas a mim apenas os milhares. O que mais pode ele almejar senão o reinado?", disse Saul. BSB BSB: And Saul was furious and resented this song. “They have ascribed tens of thousands to David,” he said, “but only thousands to me. What more can he have but the kingdom?”
9 ULB E a partir daquele dia, Saul olhava Davi com suspeita. BSB BSB: And from that day forward Saul kept a jealous eye on David.
10 ULB No próximo dia, um espírito maligno da parte de Deus se apoderou de Saul, e ele se encolarizou dentro de casa. Então Davi tocava seu instrumento exatamente como ele fazia todos os dias.

11 ULB Saul tinha na mão uma lança. Ele a arremessou contra Davi enquanto pensava no seu coração: "Vou encravá-lo na parede". Porém, Davi escapou da presença dele por duas vezes. BSB BSB: and he hurled it, thinking, “I will pin David to the wall.” But David eluded him twice.
12 ULB Saul temia Davi porque Yahweh era com este, todavia Ele não mais era com Saul. BSB BSB: So Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with David but had departed from Saul.
13 ULB Saul então o removeu de sua presença e o comissionou como comandante de mil homens. Desta forma, Davi entrava e saía diante do povo. BSB BSB: Therefore Saul sent David away and gave him command of a thousand men. David led the troops out to battle and back,
14 ULB Ele prosperava em tudo que fazia porque Yahweh era com ele. BSB BSB: and he continued to prosper in all his ways, because the LORD was with him.

16 ULB Porém toda a nação de Israel e Judá amava Davi pois ele saía e entrava diante deles. BSB BSB: But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he was leading them out to battle and back.
17 ULB Saul então disse a Davi: "Veja, aqui está Merabe minha filha mais velha. Ta darei como esposa. Tão somente sejas corajoso e guerreie as batalhas de Yahweh". O raciocínio de Saul era: "Não caia sobre ele minhas mãos e sim a dos filisteus". BSB BSB: Then Saul said to David, “Here is my older daughter Merab. I will give her to you in marriage. Only be valiant for me and fight the LORD’s battles.” But Saul was thinking, “I need not raise my hand against him; let the hand of the Philistines be against him.”
18 ULB Davi disse a Saul: "Quem sou eu, e o que significa minha vida ou a família do meu pai em Israel para que eu seja genro do rei?" BSB BSB: And David said to Saul, “Who am I, and what is my family or my father’s clan in Israel, that I should become the son-in-law of the king?”

21 ULB Saul, enquanto isso, pensou: "Vou dar Mical a Davi para que ela sirva de armadilha e assim a mão dos filisteus esteja contra ele". Por isso Saul disse a Davi pela segunda vez: "Tu serás meu genro". BSB BSB: “I will give her to David,” Saul thought, “so that she may be a snare to him, and the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” So Saul said to David, “For a second time now you can be my son-in-law.”
22 ULB Saul aconselhou seus servos dizendo: "Conversem em particular com Davi e digam: 'olhe, o rei gosta muito de ti e todos os seus servos te amam também. Ora pois, aceite o convite para ser genro do rei'".

23 ULB Então, os servos de Saul falaram essas palavras a Davi, mas esse retrucou: "por acaso vos parece coisa trivial ser genro do rei já que sou um pobre e de pouca estima em Israel"?

24 ULB Os servos de Saul contaram a Saul as palavras que Davi disse. BSB BSB: And the servants told Saul what David had said.
25 ULB Ao que Saul disse: "Assim direis a Davi: 'O rei não está interessado em nenhum dote, tão somente em cem prepúcios dos filisteus como forma de vingança contra os inimigos dele". Saul pensou que assim pudesse fazer Davi cair pelas mãos dos filisteus. BSB BSB: Saul replied, “Say to David, ‘The king desires no other dowry but a hundred Philistine foreskins as revenge on his enemies.’” But Saul intended to cause David’s death at the hands of the Philistines.
26 ULB Quando seus servos disseram a Davi tais palavras, ele ficou feliz em tornar-se genro do rei. BSB BSB: When the servants reported these terms to David, he was pleased to become the king’s son-in-law. Before the wedding day arrived,
27 ULB Antes mesmo de esgotar o prazo, Davi saiu com seus homens e matou duzentos filisteus. Ele trouxe os prepúcios que foram entregues todos ao rei para que ele pudesse se tornar genro do rei. Assim, Saul o presenteou com Mical, sua filha, que tornou-se sua esposa. BSB BSB: David and his men went out and killed two hundred Philistines. He brought their foreskins and presented them as payment in full to become the king’s son-in-law. Then Saul gave his daughter Michal to David in marriage.
28 ULB Saul viu e percebeu que Yahweh era com Davi. Mical, filha de Saul, o amou. BSB BSB: When Saul realized that the LORD was with David and that his daughter Michal loved David,
