So all the people departed everyone to his house.<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/2_samuel/6-20.htm#aramaic"><b>20</b></a></span>Then David returned to go to his house. And Malchel the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel today, for he appeared publicly before the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, for he surely conducted himself as a vain man! <span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/2_samuel/6-21.htm#aramaic"><b>21</b></a></span>And David said to Malchel, It was before the LORD, who chose me rather than your father and rather than all his house, and appointed me to be a ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel; it was because of him that I danced before the LORD. <span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/2_samuel/6-22.htm#aramaic"><b>22</b></a></span>And I will abase myself still more than this, and will humble myself in my own eyes; and the maidservants of whom you have spoken shall yet honor me. <span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/2_samuel/6-23.htm#aramaic"><b>23</b></a></span>Therefore Malchel the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.<p><br /></div></div><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">Holy Bible From The Ancient Eastern Texts: Aramaic Of The Peshitta by George M.
