1 Samuel 25:31-35 then shall it be no grudge of conscience unto thee or discourage of heart unto my lord, that thou sheddest blood causeless and didst avenge thyself. And moreover when the LORD shall have dealt well with my lord, then think on thine handmaid."

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ³¹ then shall it be no grudge of conscience unto thee or discourage of heart unto my lord, that thou sheddest blood causeless and didst avenge thyself. And moreover when the LORD shall have dealt well with my lord, then think on thine handmaid." ³² Then said David to Abigail, "Blessed be the LORD God of Israel which sent thee this day to meet me. ³³ And blessed be thy behaviour, and blessed be thou which hath kept me this day from coming to shed blood and from avenging myself with mine own hand. ³⁴ For in very deed — as sure as the LORD God of Israel liveth which hath kept me back from hurting thee — except thou hadst hasted and met me, there had not been left Nabal, by the dawning of the day, a pisser against the wall." ³⁵ And so David received of her hand that she brought him, and said to her, "Go in peace to thine house. And see, I have obeyed thy voice and have received thee to grace."
