{2 Samuel 21:8} But the king 4428 took 3947 z8799 x853 the two 8147 sons 1121 of Rizpah 7532 the daughter 1323 of Aiah, 345 whom x834 she bare 3205 z8804 unto Saul, 7586 x853 Armoni 764 and Mephibosheth; 4648 and the five 2568 sons 1121 of Michal 4324 the daughter 1323 of Saul, 7586 whom x834 she brought up 3205 z8804 for Adriel 5741 the son 1121 of Barzillai 1271 the Meholathite: 4259

Rizpah:
"And Saulª had a concubine,ª whose nameª [was] Rizpah,ª the daughterª of Aiah:ª and [Ishbosheth] saidª ° to¹ Abner,ª Wherefore¹ hast thou gone¹ in² ° unto¹ my father'sª concubine?ª" {2Sm 3:7}

and the five sons:
This Adriel did not marry Michal, Saul's younger daughter, but Merab, "But it came to pass¹ at the timeª when¹ Merabª Saul'sª daughterª should have been givenª ° to David,ª that she¹ was givenª ° unto Adrielª the Meholathiteª to wife.ª" {1Sm 18:19}; Michael being married to David, and afterwards to Phaltiel; though it is here said she bore (yaledah), not brought up, as falsely rendered, five sons to Adriel. Two of Dr. Kennicott's manuscripts, however, have Merab, instead of Michal; the Syriac and Arabic have Nadab; and the Chaldee renders the passage thus: "And the five sons of Merab which Michal the daughter of Saul brought up, which she brought forth to Adriel the son of Barzillai."

Michal:
or, Michal's sister, "But it came to pass¹ at the timeª when¹ Merabª Saul'sª daughterª should have been givenª ° to David,ª that she¹ was givenª ° unto Adrielª the Meholathiteª to wife.ª" {1Sm 18:19}
