1 Samuel 25:18

David And Abigail

¹⁷ And now know and consider what you will do, for evil is determined against our master and against all his household. For he is a son of worthlessness, so that none can speak to him. ¹⁸ And Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two skins of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of roasted grain, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and laid them on asses. ¹⁹ And she said to her servants, Go on before me. Behold, I am coming after you. But she did not tell her husband Nabal.
