Shmuel Alef 19:10-15 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

10. And Sha'ul sought to pin Dovid to the wall with the khanit; but he slipped away out of Sha'ul's presence, and he drove the khanit into the wall; and Dovid fled, and escaped that lailah.

11. Sha'ul also sent malachim unto Bais Dovid, to put him under surveillance, and to slay him in the boker; and Michal his isha warned Dovid, saying, If thou not escape with thy nefesh halilah (tonight), makhar (tomorrow) thou shalt be slain.

12. So Michal let Dovid down through the chalon; and he went, and fled, and escaped.

13. And Michal took the terafim, and laid it in the mittah, and put a piece of woven goat's hair at its head, and covered it with beged (cloth, garment).

14. And when Sha'ul sent malachim to capture Dovid, she said, He is choleh (ill).

15. And Sha'ul sent the malachim back to see Dovid, saying [to them], Bring him up to me in the mittah (bed), to have him slain.
