2 Samuel 3:14-15

3:14 David sent messengers to Ish-bosheth son of Saul with this demand: “Give me my wife Michal whom I acquired for a hundred Philistine foreskins.” 3:15 So Ish-bosheth took her from her husband Paltiel son of Laish.


tn Heb “to Ish-bosheth son of Saul saying.” To avoid excessive sibilance (especially when read aloud) the translation renders “saying” as “with this demand.”

tn Heb “whom I betrothed to myself.”

tn Heb “sent and took her.”

tn In 1 Sam 25:44 this name appears as “Palti.”
