Now the words which David had spoken were heard and they reported [them] {to} Saul, and he summoned him.

And Saul's servants spoke these words {to David privately}. But David said, "[Is] it insignificant {in your sight} to become the son-in-law of the king, [as] I am a poor and lightly esteemed man?"
