And it came to pass, as the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the city of David, that Michal, the daughter of Saul looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.

KJV

Cumque pervenisset arca fœderis Domini usque ad civitatem David, Michol filia Saul prospiciens per fenestram vidit regem David saltantem atque ludentem, et despexit eum in corde suo.

Vulgate

καὶ ἐγένετο κιβωτὸς διαθήκης Κυρίου καὶ ἦλθεν ἕως πόλεως Δαυείδ· καὶ Μελχὸλ θυγάτηρ Σαοὺλ παρέκυψεν διὰ τῆς θυρίδος, καὶ εἶδεν τὸν βασιλέα Δαυεὶδ ὀρχούμενον καὶ παίζοντα, καὶ ἐξουδένωσεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ ψυχῇ αὐτῆς.

LXX

And it came to pass, as the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.
