1 Samuel 25:1-9

11Then SamuelH8050 diedH4191; and allH3605 IsraelH3478 assembledH6908 and 2mournedH5594 for him, and they 3buriedH6912 him at his houseH1004 in RamahH7414. And DavidH1732 setH6965 outH6965 and wentH3381 downH3381 to the 4wildernessH4057 of ParanH6290.

2Now there was a manH376 in 5MaonH4584 whose businessH4639 was in 6CarmelH3760; and the manH376 was veryH3966 7richH1419, and he had threeH7969 thousandH505 sheepH6629 and a thousandH505 goatsH5795. And it cameH1961 aboutH1961 while 8he was shearingH1494 his sheepH6629 in CarmelH3760 3(now the man’sH376 nameH8034 was NabalH5037, and his 9wife’sH802 nameH8034 was AbigailH26. And the womanH802 was 10intelligentH2896H7922 and beautifulH3303 in appearanceH8389, but the manH376 was harshH7186 and evilH7451 in his dealingsH4611, and he was 11a CalebiteH3614), 4that DavidH1732 heardH8085 in the wildernessH4057 that NabalH5037 was shearingH1494 his sheepH6629. 5So DavidH1732 sentH7971 tenH6235 youngH5288 menH5288; and DavidH1732 saidH559 to the youngH5288 menH5288, “GoH5927 upH5927 to CarmelH3760 and 12visitH935H413 NabalH5037, and greetH7592H7965 him in my nameH8034; 6and thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 you shall sayH559: ‘13Have a long lifeH2416, 14peaceH7965 to you, and peaceH7965 to your houseH1004, and peaceH7965 to allH3605 that you have! 7NowH6258 then, I have heardH8085 15that you have shearersH1494. NowH6258, your shepherdsH7462 have beenH1961 with us; we have not harmedH3637 them, 16norH3808 has anythingH3972 of theirs goneH6485 missingH6485 allH3605 the daysH3117 they were in CarmelH3760. 8AskH7592 your youngH5288 menH5288 and they will tellH5046 you. Therefore let my youngH5288 menH5288 findH4672 favorH2580 in your eyesH5869, for we have comeH935 on 17a 18festiveH2896 dayH3117. PleaseH4994 giveH5414 whateverH834 you findH4672 at handH3027 to your servantsH5650 and to your sonH1121 DavidH1732.’”

9When David’sH1732 youngH5288 menH5288 cameH935, they spokeH1696 to NabalH5037 in accordance with allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 in David’sH1732 nameH8034; then they waitedH5117.
