Sin

34 Likevel, så sant Herren Israels Gud lever, som har holdt meg fra å skade deg, hvis du ikke hadde kommet raskt for å møte meg, ville det sannelig ikke vært igjen til Nabal så mye som en mannlig ved morgenen."

35 Så tok David imot fra hennes hånd det hun hadde brakt ham, og sa til henne, "Gå opp til ditt hus i fred. Se, jeg har lyttet til deg og innvilget din forespørsel."

Da kom Abigail til Nabal, og se, han holdt et festmåltid i sitt hus, som et kongemåltid. Og Nabals hjerte var lystig i ham, for han var meget beruset; så hun fortalte ham ingenting i det hele tatt før morgenlyset.

37 Men om morgenen, da vinen hadde gått ut av Nabal, fortalte hans kone ham disse tingene, og hans hjerte døde i ham, og han ble som en stein.

38 Omkring ti dager senere, lot Herren Nabal dø.
