1 Samuel 18:27
<< 1 Samuel 18:27 >>
David rose up and went, he and his men, and struck down two hundred men among the Philistines. Then David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. So Saul gave him Michal his daughter for a wife. (NASB ©1995)

1 Samuel 18:17 Then Saul said to David, "Here is my older daughter Merab; I will give her to you as a wife, only be a valiant man for me and fight the LORD'S battles." For Saul thought, "My hand shall not be against him, but let the hand of the Philistines be against him."

2 Samuel 3:14 So David sent messengers to Ish-bosheth, Saul's son, saying, "Give me my wife Michal, to whom I was betrothed for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines." (NASB ©1995)


Wherefore David arose and went, he and his men, and slew of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full tale to the king, that he might be the king's son in law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife.

his men 1Sa 18:13

slew Jud 14:19 2Sa 3:14

two hundred men. The Septuagint has only (), one hundred men; and as Saul covenanted for a hundred, as David himself says (2Sa 3:14) that he espoused Michal for a hundred, it is very probable that this is the true reading.
