1 Samuel 18:22-24

Revised Geneva Translation

²² And Saul commanded his servants, “Speak with David secretly, and say, ‘Behold, the king favors you; and all his servants love you. Be now, therefore, the king’s son-in-law.’”

²³ And Saul’s servants spoke these words in the ears of David. And David said, “Does it seem a light thing to you to be a king’s son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man and of small reputation?”

²⁴ And then Saul’s servants brought him word back, saying, “David spoke such words.”
