Parallel
1 Samuel 18:17
Clementine Vulgate · Berean Standard Bible
Dixitque Saul ad David : Ecce filia mea major Merob : ipsam dabo tibi uxorem : tantummodo esto vir fortis, et præliare bella Domini. Saul autem reputabat, dicens : Non sit manus mea in eum, sed sit super eum manus Philisthinorum.
Then Saul said to David, “Here is my older daughter Merab. I will give her to you in marriage. Only be valiant for me and fight the LORD’s battles.” But Saul was thinking, “I need not raise my hand against him; let the hand of the Philistines be against him.”
