1 Samuel 18:28

28 When Saul {realized} that Yahweh [was] with David and {his own daughter Michal} loved him,

1 Samuel 18:28 In-Context

26 So his servants told David these words, and the matter {pleased David} to become the son-in-law of the king [as] {the specified time had not expired}.
27 And David got up, and he and his men went and struck down two hundred men [of the] Philistines. Then David brought their foreskins, and {they presented the full number} to become the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him Michal his daughter as [his] wife.
28 When Saul {realized} that Yahweh [was] with David and {his own daughter Michal} loved him,
29 Saul {was threatened by David still more}, so Saul {became a perpetual enemy of David}.
30 Then the commanders of [the] Philistines went out [for battle], and as often as they went out, David succeeded more than all the servants of Saul, and his name became very esteemed.
