13. Then Michal took a statue, and placed it on the bed. And she placed the pelt of a goat for the hair at its head. And she covered it with clothes.
14. And Saul sent attendants to seize David. And it was answered that he was sick.
15. And again, Saul sent messengers to see David, saying, "Bring him to me on the bed, so that he may be killed."
16. And when the messengers had arrived, they found a likeness on the bed, with a goat pelt at its head.
17. And Saul said to Michal, "Why have you deceived me in this way, and released my enemy, so that he may flee?" And Michal responded to Saul, "Because he said to me, 'Release me, otherwise I will kill you.' "
18. Now David was saved by fleeing, and he went to Samuel in Ramah. And he reported to him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went away and stayed at Naioth.
19. Then it was reported to Saul by some, saying, "Behold, David is at Naioth, in Ramah."
