⁴ And Dauid heard in the wildernesse, that Nabal dyd shere hys shepe. ⁵ And Dauid sent out ten young men, and sayde vnto them: get you vp to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and grete hym in my name. ⁶ And thus shal ye saye: peace be to the, peace be to thyne house, & peace be vnto all that thou hast. ⁷ Beholde, I haue heard saye, that thou hast sherers.

Beholde, I haue herde thy voyce, and haue accepted thy persone. ³⁶ And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold, he held a feast in his house, lyke the feest of a kyng, & Nabals herte was mery within him, for he was very droncke.
