10Saul sought to strike David even to the wall with the spear; but he slipped away out of Saul`s presence, and he struck the spear into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.
11Saul sent messengers to David`s house, to watch him, and to kill him in the morning: and Michal, David`s wife, told him, saying, If you don`t save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be slain.
12So Michal let David down through the window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
13Michal took the teraphim, and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats` [hair] at the head of it, and covered it with the clothes.
14When Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.
15Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him.
16When the messengers came in, behold, the teraphim was in the bed, with the pillow of goats` [hair] at the head of it.
