1 Samuel 25:25-26

25My lordH113 should pay noH408H4994 attentionH7760H3820 toH413 thisH2088H5921 scoundrelH1100H376 NabalH5037,1 forH3588 heH1931 lives up to his nameH8034H3651: His nameH8034 means FoolH5037, and follyH5039 accompanies himH5973. IH589, your servantH519, did notH3808 seeH7200 my lord’sH113 young menH5288 whomH834 you sentH7971.

26NowH6258, my lordH113, as surely as the LORDH3068 livesH2416 and youH5315 yourself liveH2416, since the LORDH3068 has held you backH4513 fromH935 bloodshedH1818 and from avengingH3467 yourself with your own handH3027, may your enemiesH341 and those who seekH1245 harmH7451 forH413 my lordH113 beH1961 like NabalH5037.
