Dissemble
To dissemble is to give a false or misleading appearance to; conceal the truth or real nature of: to put on the appearance of; feign.
David's wife Michal used a dummy to dissemble royal officials into thinking her husband David was in bed ill. (I Samuel 19:13) The chicanery was implemented because her father, king Saul, sought David in hopes of killing him.
Michal took the household idol and laid it on the bed, and put a quilt of goats' hair at its head, and covered it with clothes. (I Samuel 19:13, NASB)
