1 Samuel 19:11

---

← 1 Samuel 19:10	1 Samuel 19:11 (KJV)	1 Samuel 19:12 →
And Saul sought to smite David even to the wall with the javelin; but he slipped away out of Saul's presence, and he smote the javelin into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.	Saul also sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal David's wife told him, saying, If thou save not thy life to night, to morrow thou shalt be slain.	So Michal let David down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
