ויאמר שאול אל־דוד הנה בתי הגדולה מרב אתה אתן־לך לאשה אך היה־לי לבן־חיל והלחם מלחמות יהוה ושאול אמר אל־תהי ידי בו ותהי־בו יד־פלשתים׃ ס Strong's Concordance Holman Christian Standard Bible
Saul told David, “Here is my oldest daughter Merab. I’ll give her to you as a wife, if you will be a warrior for me and fight the LORD’s battles.” But Saul was thinking, “My hand doesn’t need to be against him; let the hand of the Philistines be against him.”
New American Standard Bible
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 LORDS battles." For Saul thought, "My hand shall not be against him, but let the hand of the Philistines be against him."
King James Bible
And Saul said to David, Behold my elder daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife: only be thou valiant for me, and fight the LORD'S battles. For Saul said, Let not mine hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him. |
