- 掃羅心裡說、我將這女兒給大衛、作他的網羅、好藉非利士人的手害他。所以掃羅對大衛說、你今日可以第二次作我的女婿。
- 掃羅吩咐臣僕說、你們暗中對大衛說、王喜悅你、王的臣僕也都喜愛你、所以你當作王的女婿。
- 掃羅的臣僕、就照這話說給大衛聽。大衛說、你們以為作王的女婿、是一件小事麼.我是貧窮卑微的人。
- 掃羅的臣僕回奏、說、大衛所說的、如此如此。
- 掃羅說、你們要對大衛這樣說、王不要甚麼聘禮、只要一百非利士人的陽皮、好在王的仇敵身上報仇。掃羅的意思要使大衛喪在非利士人的手裡。

- "I will give her to him," he thought, "so that she may be a snare to him and so that the hand of the Philistines may be against him." So Saul said to David, "Now you have a second opportunity to become my son-in-law."
- Then Saul ordered his attendants: "Speak to David privately and say, 'Look, the king is pleased with you, and his attendants all like you; now become his son-in-law.' "
- They repeated these words to David. But David said, "Do you think it is a small matter to become the king's son-in-law? I'm only a poor man and little known."
- When Saul's servants told him what David had said,
- Saul replied, "Say to David, 'The king wants no other price for the bride than a hundred Philistine foreskins, to take revenge on his enemies.' " Saul's plan was to have David fall by the hands of the Philistines.
