New Century Version

1 Samuel 18:26-30 New Century Version (NCV)

26. When Saul’s servants told this to David, he was pleased to become the king’s son-in-law.

27. So he and his men went out and killed two hundred Philistines. David brought all their foreskins to Saul so he could be the king’s son-in-law. Then Saul gave him his daughter Michal for his wife.

28. Saul saw that the Lord was with David and that his daughter Michal loved David.

29. So he grew even more afraid of David, and he was David’s enemy all his life.

30. The Philistine commanders continued to go out to fight the Israelites, but every time, David was more skillful than Saul’s officers. So he became famous.
