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!
KJV
Reversusque est David ut benediceret domui suæ : et egressa Michol filia Saul in occursum David, ait : Quam gloriosus fuit hodie rex Israël discooperiens se ante ancillas servorum suorum, et nudatus est, quasi si nudetur unus de scurris.
Vulgate
Καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Δαυεὶδ εὐλογῆσαι τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Μελχὸλ ἡ θυγάτηρ Σαοὺλ εἰς ἀπάντησιν Δαυεὶδ καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν Τί δεδόξασται σήμερον ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἰσραήλ, ὃς ἀπεκαλύφθη σήμερον ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς παιδισκῶν τῶν δούλων ἑαυτοῦ καθὼς ἀποκαλύπτεται ἀποκαλυφθεὶς εἷς τῶν ὀρχουμένων.
LXX
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!
