1 Samuel 25:34-36

Revised Geneva Translation

³⁴ “For indeed, as the LORD God of Israel lives (Who has restrained me from hurting you), except that you had hurried and met me, surely no male would have been left to Nabal by the dawning of the day.”

³⁵ Then David received from her hand that which she had brought him, and said to her, “Go up in peace to your house. Behold, I have heard your voice and have granted your petition.”

³⁶ So Abigail came to Nabal. And behold, he made a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. And Nabal’s heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore, she told him nothing, neither less nor more, until the morning arose.
