King James Bible - 2 Samuel 6:20

Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to day, who uncovered himself to day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!

World English Bible

Then David returned to bless his household. Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, "How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!"

Douay-Rheims - 2 Samuel 6:20

And David returned to bless his own house: and Michol the daughter of Saul coming out to meet David, said: How glorious was the king of Israel to day, uncovering himself before the handmaids of his servants, and was naked, as if one of the buffoons should be naked.

Webster's Bible Translation

Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!

SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:20

¶ Volvió luego David para bendecir su casa; y saliendo Mical a recibir a David, dijo: ¡Cuán honrado ha sido hoy el rey de Israel, desenvolviéndose hoy delante de las criadas de sus siervos, como si fuese un hombre vacío!

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Samuel 6:20

Verse 20. To
bless his household.] This was according to the custom of the patriarchs, who were priests in their own families. It is worthy of remark, that David is called patriarch by Stephen, Acts ii. 29, though living upwards of four hundred years after the termination of the patriarchal age.

How glorious was the king of Israel] This is a strong irony. From what Michal says, it is probable that David used some violent gesticulations, by means of which some parts of his body became uncovered. But it is very probable that we cannot guess all that was implied in this reproach.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 20. Then David returned to bless his household , etc.] His wife, children, and servants, to wish all happiness to them on this occasion, and pray to God for blessings on them temporal and spiritual. This was done when he came from the place where the ark was set, and was come to his own palace: and Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David ; before he had gotten quite to his own house: and said, how glorious was the king of Israel today ; which she spoke in an ironical jeering way, meaning the reverse, how inglorious, mean, and despicable he had made himself to be, by his airs and gestures: who uncovered himself today in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself ! because he had put off his royal robes, and put on a linen ephod; for that he had stripped himself naked cannot be supposed, nor do her words import so much though a passionate exaggeration of the case.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 20-23 -
David returned to bless his household, to pray with them, and for them and to offer up family thanksgiving for this national mercy. It is angels' work to worship God, surely that cannot lower the greatest of men. But even the palaces of princes are not free from family troubles Exercises of religion appear mean in the eyes of those who have littl or no religion themselves. If we can approve ourselves to God in what we do in religion, and do it as before the Lord, we need not hee reproach. Piety will have its praise: let us not be indifferent in it nor afraid or ashamed to own it. David was contented to justif himself, and he did not further reprove or blame Michal's insolence but God punished her. Those that honour God, he will honour; but thos that despise him, and his servants and service, shall be lightl esteemed __________________________________________________________________
