Berkatalah Saul kepada Mikhal: "Mengapa engkau menipu aku demikian itu dan melepas musuhku pergi, sehingga ia luput?" Tetapi jawab Mikhal kepada Saul: "Ia berkata kepadaku: Biarkanlah aku pergi, apa perlunya aku membunuh engkau?"
Maka titah Saul kepada Mikhal: Mengapa engkau menipu aku demikian dan engkau membiarkan seteruku itu pergi, sehingga iapun berlepas dirinya? Maka sembah Mikhal kepada Saul: Bahwa katanya kepada patik demikian: Biarkan aku pergi, karena apa gunanya engkau kubunuh.

And so Lot lyftyng vp his eyes, behelde all the countrey of Iordane, whiche was well watred euery where before the Lorde destroyed Sodome and Gomorrh, euen as the garden of the Lorde, lyke the lande of Egypt as thou commest vnto Soar.

And Lot sayde vnto them: Oh not so my Lordes.
Haste thee, and be saued there: for I can do nothyng tyl thou be come thyther, and therfore the name of the citie is Soar.

And the elder said vnto the younger: our father is olde, and there is not a man in the earth to come in vnto vs after the maner of all the worlde.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Saul said unto Michal,.... After the messengers returned and reported what they had seen, when Saul either came to her at her house, or sent for her to his palace:
why hast thou deceived me so; for deceiving his messengers was deceiving him, by pretending David was sick and in bed, when she had placed an image there, and had let him down through a window, and he was gone:
and sent away mine enemy, that he is escaped? as if she was more obliged to gratify the wicked passion of a father, than to provide for the safety of her husband:
and Michal answered Saul, he said unto me, let me go, why should I kill thee? though she was concerned for the preservation of her husband, yet not for his honour and credit, nor for her own veracity; she attempted not to vindicate her husband from the charge of being an enemy to Saul, as she might; but suggested that he was so desperate a man, that if she had offered to have detained him, he would have murdered her, and threatened, if she did, he would do when both were false; that he should say to her let me go, when it was she that advised him to go, and that if she refused he would kill her; which lies were framed by her to excuse herself, at the expense of her husband's reputation.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Why should I kill thee? - To avert Saul’s anger from herself, she pretended that David had threatened her life unless she facilitated his escape.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 19:17. Let me go; why should I kill thee? — That is, If thou do not let me go, I will kill thee. This she said to excuse herself to her father: as a wife she could do not less than favour the escape of her husband, being perfectly satisfied that there was no guilt in him. It is supposed that it was on this occasion that David wrote the Psalms 59:0, Deliver me frown mine enemies, &c.
