"Now be aware of this, and see what you can do. For disaster has been planned for our lord and his entire household. He is such a wicked person that no one tells him anything!”"
— 1 Samuel 25:17, NET Bible
“Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his household: for he is such a son of Belial, that a man cannot speak to him.”
“Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his house: for he is such a worthless fellow, that one cannot speak to him. ”
“Now therefore know and consider what you will do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his house; for he is such a worthless fellow that one can't speak to him."”
“Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him.”
“So now, give thought to what you are going to do; for evil is in store for our master and all his house: for he is such a good-for-nothing person that it is not possible to say anything to him.”
“Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his household: for he is such a son of Belial, that a man cannot speak to him.”
But one of the servants told Nabal’s wife Abigail,“David sent messengers from the wilderness to greet our lord, but he screamed at them.
These men were very good to us. They did not insult us, nor did we sustain any loss during the entire time we were together in the field.
Both night and day they were a protective wall for us the entire time we were with them, while we were tending our flocks.
Now be aware of this, and see what you can do. For disaster has been planned for our lord and his entire household. He is such a wicked person that no one tells him anything!”
So Abigail quickly took two hundred loaves of bread, two containers of wine, five prepared sheep, five seahs of roasted grain, a hundred bunches of raisins, and two hundred lumps of pressed figs. She loaded them on donkeys
and said to her servants,“Go on ahead of me. I will come after you.” But she did not tell her husband Nabal.
Riding on her donkey, she went down under cover of the mountain. David and his men were coming down to meet her, and she encountered them.
