1 Samuel 25:8

David And Abigail

⁷ Now I have heard that you have shearers; now your shepherds have been with us and we have not insulted them, nor have they missed anything all the days they were in Carmel. ⁸ Ask your young men and they will tell you. Therefore let my young men find favor in your eyes, for we have come on a festive day. Please give whatever you find at hand to your servants and to your son David.’” ⁹ When David’s young men came, they spoke to Nabal according to all these words in David’s name; then they waited.
