1 Samuel 25:39-44
39And when DavidH1732 heardH8085 that NabalH5037 was deadH4191, he saidH559, BlessedH1288 be Jehovah, that hath pleaded the causeH7379 of my reproachH2781 from the handH3027 of NabalH5037, and hath keptH2820 backH7725 his servantH5650 from evilH7451: and the evil-doing of NabalH5037 hath Jehovah returnedH7725 upon his own headH7218. And DavidH1732 sentH7971 and spake concerning AbigailH26, to takeH3947 her to him to wifeH802. 40And when the servantsH5650 of DavidH1732 were comeH935 to AbigailH26 to CarmelH3760, they spake unto her, sayingH559, DavidH1732 hath sentH7971 us unto thee, to takeH3947 thee to him to wifeH802. 41And she aroseH6965, and bowedH7812 herself with her faceH639 to the earthH776, and saidH559, Behold, thy handmaid is a servantH5650 to washH7364 the feetH7272 of the servantsH5650 of my lordH113. 42And AbigailH26 hasted, and aroseH6965, and rodeH7392 upon an ass, with fiveH2568 damsels of hers that followed her; and she wentH1980 after the messengersH4397 of DavidH1732, and becameH1961 his wifeH802.
43DavidH1732 alsoH1571 tookH3947 AhinoamH293 of JezreelH3157; and they becameH1961 both of them his wivesH802. 44Now SaulH7586 had givenH5414 MichalH4324 his daughterH1323, David’s wifeH802, to PaltiH6406 the sonH1121 of Laish, who was of GallimH1554.
