1 Samuel 25:8

David And Abigail

⁷ Now, therefore, have I heard that thou hast shearers, - Well, the shepherds that thou hast, have been with us, we reproached them not, neither missed they, anything, all the days they were in Carmel. ⁸ Ask thy young men, that they may tell thee, that so my young men may find favour in thine eyes, for, on a good day, have we come! Give, I pray thee, what thy hand findeth, to thy servants, and to thy son, to David! ⁹ So David's young men came, and spake unto Nabal, according to all these words, in the name of David, - and waited.
