Faced with proof of the Philistine deaths, Saul was forced to give Michal to David as his wife. Later, he would ignore their marriage and give Michal to a man called Palti (1 Samuel 25:44), though she would later be restored to David when he became king (2 Samuel 3:13; 2 Samuel 6:16–23).1
27 Avant le terme fixé, David se leva, partit avec ses gens, et tua deux cents hommes parmi les Philistins; il apporta leurs prépuces, et en livra au roi le nombre complet, afin de devenir gendre du roi. Alors Saül lui donna pour femme Mical, sa fille.
