24 H5307 She fell H7272 at his feet, H559 and said, H113 "On me, my lord, H5771 on me be the iniquity; H519 and please let your handmaid H1696 speak H241 in your ears. H8085 Hear H1697 the words H589 of your handmaid.

25 H7760 Please don't let H113 my lord H3820 regard H1100 this worthless H376 fellow, H5037 even Nabal; H8034 for as his name H5037 is, so is he. Nabal H8034 is his name, H5039 and folly H519 is with him; but I, your handmaid, H7200 didn't see H5288 the young men H113 of my lord, H7971 whom you sent.

26 H113 Now therefore, my lord, H3068 as Yahweh H2416 lives, H5315 and as your soul H2416 lives, H3068 since Yahweh H4513 has withheld H935 you from H1818 blood H3467 guiltiness, and from avenging H3027 yourself with your own hand, H341 now therefore let your enemies, H1245 and those who seek H7451 evil H113 to my lord, H5037 be as Nabal.

27 H1293 Now this present H8198 which your servant H935 has brought H113 to my lord, H5414 let it be given H5288 to the young men H1980 who follow H113 my lord.

28 H5375 Please forgive H6588 the trespass H519 of your handmaid. H3068 For Yahweh H6213 will certainly H6213 make H3068 my lord H539 a sure H1004 house, H113 because my lord H3898 fights H4421 the battles H113 of Yahweh; H7451 and evil H4672 shall not be found H3117 in you all your days.

29 H120 Though men H6965 may rise H7291 up to pursue H1245 you, and to seek H5315 your soul, H5315 yet the soul H113 of my lord H6887 shall be bound H6872 in the bundle H2416 of life H3068 with Yahweh H430 your God. H7049 He will sling out H5315 the souls H341 of your enemies, H8432 as from the hollow H7050 of a sling.

30 H3068 It shall come to pass, when Yahweh H6213 has done H3068 to my lord H2896 according to all the good H1696 that he has spoken H6680 concerning you, and shall have appointed H5057 you prince H3478 over Israel,

31 H6330 that this shall be no grief H4383 to you, nor offense H3820 of heart H113 to my lord, H8210 either that you have shed H1818 blood H2600 without cause, H113 or that my lord H3467 has avenged H113 himself. When Yahweh H3190 has dealt well H3068 with my lord, H2142 then remember H519 your handmaid."

32 H1732 David H559 said H26 to Abigail, H1288 "Blessed H3068 is Yahweh, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H7971 who sent H3117 you this day H7125 to meet me!

33 H1288 Blessed H2940 is your discretion, H1288 and blessed H3607 are you, that have kept H3117 me this day H935 from H1818 blood H3467 guiltiness, and from avenging H3027 myself with my own hand.

34 H199 For indeed, H3068 as Yahweh, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H2416 lives, H4513 who has withheld H7489 me from hurting H3884 you, unless H4116 you had hurried H935 and come H7125 to meet H3498 me, surely there wouldn't have been left H5037 to Nabal H1242 by the morning H216 light H8366 so much as one who urinates H7023 on a wall."

35 H1732 So David H3947 received H3027 of her hand H935 that which she had brought H559 him: and he said H5927 to her, "Go up H7965 in peace H1004 to your house. H7200 Behold, H8085 I have listened H6963 to your voice, H5375 and have granted H6440 your request."

36 H26 Abigail H935 came H5037 to Nabal; H4960 and behold, he held a feast H1004 in his house, H4960 like the feast H4428 of a king. H5037 Nabal's H3820 heart H2896 was merry H3966 within him, for he was very H7910 drunken. H5046 Therefore she told H1697 him nothing, H6996 less H1419 or more, H1242 until the morning H216 light.

37 H1242 It happened in the morning, H3196 when the wine H3318 was gone out H5037 of Nabal, H802 that his wife H5046 told H1697 him these things, H3820 and his heart H4191 died H7130 within H68 him, and he became as a stone.

38 H6235 It happened about ten H3117 days H3068 after, that Yahweh H5062 struck H5037 Nabal, H4191 so that he died.

39 H1732 When David H8085 heard H5037 that Nabal H4191 was dead, H559 he said, H1288 "Blessed H3068 is Yahweh, H7378 who has pleaded H7379 the cause H2781 of my reproach H3027 from the hand H5037 of Nabal, H2820 and has kept H5650 back his servant H7451 from evil. H3068 Yahweh H7725 has returned H7451 the evildoing H5037 of Nabal H7218 on his own head." H1732 David H7971 sent H1696 and spoke H26 concerning Abigail, H3947 to take H802 her to him as wife.

40 H5650 When the servants H1732 of David H935 had come H26 to Abigail H3760 to Carmel, H1696 they spoke H559 to her, saying, H1732 "David H7971 has sent H3947 us to you, to take H802 you to him as wife."

41 H6965 She arose, H7812 and bowed H639 herself with her face H776 to the earth, H559 and said, H519 "Behold, your handmaid H8198 is a servant H7364 to wash H7272 the feet H8198 of the servants H113 of my lord."

42 H26 Abigail H4116 hurried, H6965 and arose, H7392 and rode H2543 on a donkey, H2568 with five H5291 ladies H1980 of hers who H7272 followed H1980 her; and she went H7272 after H4397 the messengers H1732 of David, H802 and became his wife.

43 H1732 David H3947 also took H293 Ahinoam H3157 of Jezreel; H8147 and they both H802 became his wives.

44 H7586 Now Saul H5414 had given H4324 Michal H1323 his daughter, H1732 David's H802 wife, H6406 to Palti H1121 the son H3919 of Laish, H1554 who was of Gallim.
