2 Samuel 3:14

3:14 David sent messengers to Ish-bosheth son of Saul with this demand: ¹  “Give me my wife Michal whom I acquired ²  for a hundred Philistine foreskins.”

2 Samuel 11:11

11:11 Uriah replied to David, “The ark and Israel and Judah reside in temporary shelters, and my lord Joab and my lord’s soldiers are camping in the open field. Should I go to my house to eat and drink and have marital relations ³  with my wife? As surely as you are alive, ⁴  I will not do this thing!”

[3:14]  ¹ 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.”

[3:14]  ² tn Heb “whom I betrothed to myself.”

[11:11]  ³ tn Heb “and lay.”

[11:11]  ⁴ tn Heb “as you live and as your soul lives.”
