- But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he led them in their campaigns.
- Saul said to David, "Here is my older daughter Merab. I will give her to you in marriage; only serve me bravely and fight the battles of the LORD." For Saul said to himself, "I will not raise a hand against him. Let the Philistines do that!"
- But David said to Saul, "Who am I, and what is my family or my father's clan in Israel, that I should become the king's son-in-law?"
- So when the time came for Merab, Saul's daughter, to be given to David, she was given in marriage to Adriel of Meholah.
- Now Saul's daughter Michal was in love with David, and when they told Saul about it, he was pleased.
